Good morning Mykonos


 
Beautiful scenery. It is funny how being on a cruise will totally change your sleep habits. In a way it's like not being on vacation. My wife and I will be going on a carribean cruise this fall for our anniversary, our first vacation without our kids since we were married. I considered doing a European cruise but I really don't think I could deal with that long of a flight there. The flight to Florida I can handle and we went on a similar cruise 25 years ago and enjoyed it immensely. I would still really like to go to Europe someday, my grandfather spent some time there in the 40's and spoke highly of it except for the two occasions someone shot down the plane he was flying.

We’re probably similar in age. We only started cursing without kids in 2021 on a Caribbean cruise. Almost all our vacations are childless these days since.

DM me if you have questions about Europe cruises. This one has been amazing. Greek Isles, 10 days and we bookended Rome as that was our embarkation port and Barcelona which is our disembarkation port.

We’ve never taken this much time for ourselves and quite frankly, it’s so relaxing.

I've been following your vacation posts with interest. I'm just not a good flyer, which is what this has come down to. I am looking forward to going on vacation without my kids though, I think I've earned it as I'm sure you and your wife have. Someday.

We flew SFO to FCO. It was 12 hours. Yeah, pretty long. A lot easier if you upgrade to better seats.

Coming home we broke it up better. BCN to IAD in Washington DC. Only a 9 hour leg and then a 5 hour leg back to CA.

Get a credit card that gets you lounge access. It’s like unlocking the magic key to travel comfort.
 
Lunch looks delicious......I would take a wild swing saying that most or at least half the meals on board is under spec to what comes on your plate at home.......it's a thing I heard maybe....possibly......

Indeed so. Our core diet is Mediterranean.

This trip is like a pilgrimage to the homeland. Except our homeland would be a little more East. And in the desert.
 
@DanHoo, start with the Greek salad recipe and build from there with some chicken skewers.
