Our flight to Warsaw was at 12:20 pm, so that didn't give us much time in the morning to see more of the beautiful city of Budapest. We travelled to the airport for our "Wizz" flight and as we were almost through to the plane, Anthony was asked to check the size of his cabin bag and it failed. We thought "huh"? It's a standard cabin bag and we've been travelling on numerous flights with it. But, oh no, on Wizz you can only take a "small" cabin bag and...

It was extremely humid and uncomfortable. I'm not one to sweat, but my forehead had beads of sweat from the humidity and I was acut...

What a climb! It certainly got my heart racing. I needed a few moments to get my breath before we continued the walk. I...

We left the ship with a bus load of tourists to see the island of Corfu. First stop, a Greek Orthodox Church and monastery from the 17th century. There was a fabulous view across to the island known as the petrified boat of Ulysses (from the Iliad fame). While the church was interesting it paled in comparison to some of the other sites we have seen.Our next stop was the beach. Beautiful clear blue water surrounded by high rock cliffs. We were excited for a swim i...
