Checking back in after a nice day in Barcelona.

We especially like the hot tubs that are scattered around. One is right off of the 6th deck, just a short walk from our cabin. Two more, with a small plunge pool, are located behind The Club. And then there is the regular pool on deck 8 with two hot tubs. Plus, there are more hot tubs on the spa deck, for an extra fee.

Ngaire, we had hoped for John Barron but the cruise director is Jan Stearman. However, Mark Hadeed (formerly from Navigator) is the Guest Services Manager and he sends his regards.

Pat, thanks for reading My Itchy Travel Feet. You probably won't see much there until after the cruise as the editorial calendar is planned way in advance. However, we're posting photos and updates on our Facebook page, although we're a bit behind.

And, as soon as I can, I'll post a recommendation for the guide we used on our 9-day Northern Italian road trip before this cruise started.

Maria, we are doing two segments - Rome to Lisbon followed by Lisbon to Ft. Lauderdale.

That's all for now.
