Finally, pictures from my cruise on Carnival Liberty

We were there two times and stayed at the Bellagio, and The Venetian which I prefer (it had a sunken living room, walk in closets and so many extras, it was amazing). I have a chart with all the free attractions, where they are and the times to visit them. If you like I can send this to you. You are going to love it there and although we are not gamblers, there is so much to see and do, you are never bored.

Mercedes, thank you for sharing your photos! The ones of Pompeii were of special interest as it's on my list of places to see before I die. Was it as incredible as it looked? I will share your Croatia phots with friends who are going this summer.

Sure looks like you have a blast!

Pompeii is just stunning; it is truly rich in history and fascinating how sophisticated the Pompeii population had been. If you do go, remember to wear comfortable walking shoes because the cobblestones are hard on the feet. Our tour lasted several hours and even though I had on comfortable shoes, my feet ached when I got back to the ship, but it was worth every twinge.

mercedes,

Thanks for the spectacular pictures. It took me two days to get through the Mediterranean cruise pics. I'm going back later to check out Paris and Acapulco.

I noticed that when you were in Scicily, you took the same trek that I took to the top of a hill to that church with the tomb of the unknown soldier. It offered a great view of the port. Did you walk it? It looked so close from the ship and then there was this maze of streets to commandeer, all uphill. I got my exercise that day. :biggrin::biggrin:

It looks like Venice has its own leaning tower. When I was there I wasn't sure if one of those towers wasn't leaning but you have the evidence in your photo.

I can't wait to see Paris and Mexico.

Thank you all for the kind words about my pictures.

Mebert, I was out of breath by the time I reached the top of the hill, but it was worth it. You are correct, Venice has it own leaning tower. The guide brought it to our attention.

The Acapulco pictures are kind of fuzzy because that was before I received my digital camera and I scanned those. The originals are great but they did not scan so well, I probably need a new scanner. I was going to scan my other pictures from my vacations in Europe, but after seeing the results of the Acapulco ones; I will wait until I get a new scanner :smile: .

The reason why I made that steep climb was because the church was so prominently displayed on the top of that hill. Had I known the climb was so demanding I would have thought twice. On the other hand, old Italian ladies and nuns were passing me at great speed as I was sweating a gasping for air. I noticed some of them had a little chuckle as I thought I was getting ready for last rites.
