On Current Istanbul to Athens - Black Sea Cruise.

We have had outstanding weather so far. We will be in Sevastopol, Ukraine today and have already visited Nessebur, Buckarest, and Odessa. I was very pleased with Odessa, a beautiful city, tree line streets, with gorgeous women.

As has been said before, on this forum, Navigator is showing its need of repair: carpets, drapes, furniture, a stern elevator that still doesn't work well(was stuck in it for 20 minutes, Oct.'08), a toilet in one of the public restrooms they just aren't fixing. But she is still a beautiful ship, good food and a friendly crew.
A number of old crew are no longer on board, I miss seeing the Scottish Captain and his kilt.

Now back to rest and relaxation, the cruise is already half over.
