The Vision of the Seas (Royal Caribbean) begins its next Mediterranean Sea voyage today and you won’t believe who is going to be onboard….us!

Starting in Venice, we are scheduled to visit Dubrovnik, Croatia; Malta; Rome; Florence/Pisa; Nice; Ibiza; Mallorca; and finally Barcelona. We have planned a couple tours along the way, but our main intention is to simply rest and enjoy the next 11 days without any pressure before returning to the States.
Before we are picked up and transferred to the ship, we have a few hours to say one last goodbye to beautiful Venice. Pat and I woke early, ate breakfast, and took a stroll to witness the start of the day in this amazing city.

The ship now awaits to take us on more adventures before we head home to the States. Thank you for your beauty, Venice. We hope we will return one day.
