Picture Perfect Seville

We had a early start today the tour we booked on left at 7.30 sharp. The tour was Seville on your Own which was billed as a drop off in Seville and time to wander about.  

By the time we got to Seville it was about 9.40 so we walked to the hop on hop off bus and did the 1 hour loop ok that which gave us a great flavour of this beautiful city. Below are some snaps from the tour. We had a walk through the Plaza de España which was very picturesque with boats and places to walk through the trees. A must visit spot if you are ever in Seville.

    What a beautiful place with a superb mix of classical architecture and attractive open spaces. Riviera Travel offer something like an 8-night Tour of Classical Spain and, from memory, it includes Seville, Granada and the Alhambra Palace. We've been tempted to book it before now and this is likely to tip us further into going ahead.

The beautiful Malaga!

So the first of our 4 port days in a row was Malaga. We intended on just going for a little wander but ended up going for a long walk! We decided not to take the shuttle bus from the ship, rather walking down the harbour, which ended up being a great idea as there were lots of little shops and restaurants along the harbour. Malaga had its Christmas decorations already up, which, even though it was the day, were impressive!  We took a walk around the cathedral, and of course went a shopping! On the way back we decided to take a leaf out of a certain someone's book and had a beer overlooking the harbour. We ended up doing just under 20k steps, so the beer was most certainly needed! Food in the evening was its usual top quality, an interesting dish was a savoury sun dried tomato cheese cake which was interesting, but wouldn't be chose again! ...

Barcelona with a side of Tapas

So day 3 and 4 of our 4 port extravaganza was an overnight in Barcelona!  This was one we both were really looking forward to as we were meeting a friend we had yet to meet face to face! The weather was lovely, and we headed off the boat early (ish) after a light breakfast. We again decided to walk from the boat to the harbour as we believed it wasn't that far from where the boat was docked. How wrong we were! It ended up being about 4km from the boat to the start of the harbour, and it was rather windy, with it being a bit expost on the harbour! We passed the Viking Sky cruise ship, as well as the MSC Grandiosa on our way out of the harbour.  At this port we had been informed in the 'Bugal' that some areas of the deck and balconies would be unable to be used while we took on LNG (Liquid Natural Gas) which powers the ship, Iona is one of a few cruise ships who run on this fuel. You can see on the photo below a ship docked alongside doing the 'bunkering' (furthest sh...
