Europe. It's Happening.

What a remarkable week. I am having a hard time sailing away from each of these cities as one proves to be more beautiful than the next. Here is just a sampling of the hundreds of pictures I have taken from Malaga, Lisbon, and Bordeaux. I must say the best part about working on a cruise ship is that you go to sleep in one country and wake up in another without having to do any work trying to get there. The bad part is that you never want to leave each country but you have to follow your bed! Europe has already blown my mind.

Malaga, Spain.

Bull fighting arena
Just hangin out on a fort. Literally hangin out.
Palaces everywhere
Ya know....Just a simple church
I like photo shoots in front of pretty palace doors
Had to catch up on the local Malagan news
Lisbon, Portugal.
Tiles are the style in Lisbon
A fortress with a view
This is what all the houses look like...it's like stepping back in time seeing the bright laundry hanging outside
I am an explorer with the explorers
Here you can get a better idea of how big this monument is
The main square was so bright and colorful
This was an art installation where they put post-it's on a billboard. Was it oppression? Expression? Regression? Don't know but it was cool.
Sail away was a combination of Rio and San Fransisco.
St Emillion, France.
Start of our adventure...we made it to the train station!
Then to the beautiful Saint Emilion!
We ate lunch in this square
Petit dejeuner-crepe with pears, vanilla ice cream, almonds and whipped creme. Assortment of cheeses and baguette. Who could ask for anything more?
I belong IN wine country. Like...IN IT.
So happy to have made it to the Chateau Soutard
Don't forget to stop and smell the roses...in chateaus.
Our petite wine tasting!
I heart wine.
Just wildflowers everywhere...
Bordeaux, France.
Macaroons are the thing to eat here
Little Red and the two princes on the steps of the palace
Yes, these are all made of chocolate
Happy. Very very happy.
