We arrived in Vigo around 10:00 AM this morning. After we woke up we decided to have some
coffee and tea in our cabin before getting ready for breakfast. A nice breakfast at Sabatini’s and then we
headed out to tour the town.
It is a beautiful city, but just a few things to see close
to town center. We did not feel like
taking a long tour out in to the countryside.
The ship was only going to be in port for 6 hours. We walked into the old part of the city and
saw people making baskets and putting them outside their shops for sale. Beautiful work, but no way to get one home on
the ship or airplane. They fish market
was interesting, with lots of fresh fish and other sea creatures for sale.
After touring the old quarters we walked back toward the
ship and stopped at a outdoor restaurant for some refreshments. Judi had a coffee and I order hot
chocolate. I think they took a couple of
semisweet chocolate bars and melted them in my cup and them served it to
me. It was the thickest hot chocolate I
have ever had, about the consistency of Hershey syrup.
Back on the ship we ordered room service, and ate out on our
deck. Later Judi went for a massage and
I took a nap. Her massage was good and
my nap was good until the Royal Caribbean ship, parked behind us, sounded his
horn to call passengers back for departure.
Since we are on the back, when that horn sounded I came straight up out
of bed.
We ate in the Michelangelo dining room tonight and then went
to the theater for the show. It was a
comedian by the name of Kelly Monteith.
It was good, and his humor centered on the old folks and some of our
issues.
The sea was smooth as we left Vigo and tomorrow we will be
in Lisbon, Portugal.
The computer problems I was having earlier seem to have been
fixed.
