It started out in the romantic city of Roma, where men and women drive mopeds and drink cappuccino. The beautiful little streets were just wide enough to “squeak” by in our large tour bus. Most of us held our breath, clinched our fists, and looked toward the Vatican for guidance! Boy oh boy can those Italians drive.
Our first port stop was Naples where many of us visited the ancient ruins of Pompeii. Debby thankfully found her way because we would have missed her smiling face if we left her there! That evening we had our first 50’s and 60’s Sock Hop. We twisted the night away! Patty and Queenie went all out and won themselves 1st prize in our costume contest.
The day at sea gave us time to meet and socialize.  We had a fantastic turn-out for our speed meeting followed by a relaxing ice cream social. Turkey was astonishing, Ephesus was unbelievable, almost as if they glued it back together again. Istanbul had the shoppers in a frenzy, they have the largest bazaar in the World. So many rugs and so little time. The Blue Mosque was magnificant, it was an all around beautiful day.
Greece was a hit with our cruises too! Many more ruins to see and much more to learn. The ancient people sure did work hard. It was great that Beth joined us for lunch in the Plakta! Or masquerade party was a very fun event. Many people wore beautiful masks from Venice so it was truly a grand occasion.
The overwhelming response from our singles cruisers at the end of this sailing was that “it was the best vacation they’ve ever had.” Those words warm our hearts and tickle our ear drums. On behalf of SinglesCruise.com we thank you for sailing with us and hope that you continue to bless us with your presence, it wouldn’t be the same with out you!
