Fort Lauderdale to Lisbon |
||
 |
 |
|
| We spent a couple of days with Tiffany in Florida before the cruise. The seafood at JB's in Deerfield Beach www.jbsonthebeach.com was fabulous. | The Princess "Crown Princess" was a great ship. We had purchased an inside cabin, but got bumped up to a balcony! |
|
 |
 |
|
| Paul & Vicki both competed in the "Bar Wars - Battle of the Sexes" martini drink making competition, which was later featured on the ship's TV channel. (The girls won!) | We met great people at dinner - David & Jill, from Chicago, and Bert & Melissa, from Ft. Lauderdale. | |
 |
 |
|
| Bert & Melissa invited us to participate in a private tour they had purchased for 6 people on the ship's bridge. |
We felt so fortunate to get a view that few others do. |

Lisbon, Portugal |
||
 |
 |
|
| As our ship cruised up the Tagus River toward Lisbon, we passed two of the city's most famous landmarks - the Belem Tower and the Monument of the Discoveries. |
||
 |
 |
|
| Beautiful blue tile scenes and lovely plazas were everywhere in the oldest area of the city. | ||
 |
 |
|
| From the Castle of St. George we could see the red tile roofs of the city below. |
Lisbon is known for its delicious pasteis de Belem pastries. |
|
 |
 |
|
| The Jeronimos Monastery had great examples of the intricately carved Manueline style architecture. The tomb of Vasco da Gama was near the entrance. |
