We were awake early, over an hour before the wake up call. This was partly because we couldn't sleep and partly because of the noise outside. The six of us had arranged to meet outside Medina for our last breakfast at 7:30. After breakfast, we took photos and said our goodbyes. Barbara and I then grabbed our stuff and got straight off the ship. Once I reached the baggage hall, I WhatsApped Angie to let her know I was off the ship. Barb and I found our lugg...

After breakfast and most of mile, we returned to the cabin and finished most of our packing. We both placed a couple of cases outside for collection. I had one more to go but that waited until just before dinner. When we started this cruise, we had the itinerary, tickets and other bits of paper held on the cabin walls by magnets.

The weather was cool, 12 degrees, and damp. The drive in was pleasant enough after we left the port area. We drove past fields of vegetables and were dropped off in town. The town is small with narrow streets and pretty painted buildings. We walked towards the town square and stop...
