Durres, Albania. The tours were all long so we just walked into the town. It was cleaner and nicer than I thought it would be. Lots of unemployment here and a struggling economy so I was not expecting much. Ice cream was only 50 cents. Marcie and Tom had a massage that was inexpensive and she said that it was a lovely spa and one of the best massages ever. Who would have thought that!

Yesterday was great. I love Montenegro such a beautiful little country. It was a very scenic bus ride - 25 hair pin turns. Not good for people who do not like a mountain road like that but the scenery was spectacular. The town that you can walk to from the tender dock is one of the cleanest and nicest small towns ever. Food was good and very inexpensive. June and I shared a club sandwich for $6 and could barely eat it all.

Night before last leaving Albania we had a huge lightning storm, and heavy rain. However the ocean must have remained calm as the ship did not move. It was beautiful to watch.

This has been the calmest cruise ever! I almost wish for a little chop so we can see how this ship sails. Feel like we have been on land all this time. I have heard from crew members that this ship handles any rough water extremely well so that is always good news. I really like this ship and so happy we will be coming back on Frolic in March.
