Thank you Laura.B and Joe. Many of us wish we were having such an adventurous summer. All the best in Greece.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the great pics and video!
ReplyDeletejoe,
ReplyDeleteonce again you outdid yourself. i really enjoyed the photos. last time i saw my son in cadets tieing knots. this time he isnt there but the pictures are great. hope you are enjoying your trip.
I'm not sure what type of pastry that is? It looks like some kind of baklava. Sorry :P
ReplyDeleteJoe, Great pics...I might have to 'borrow' one or two...hope it's ok!
ReplyDeleteAs always thanks for the Updates Joe! We really enjoyed the photos and the waters of Andros look as beautiful as they have been described. I'll bet the cadets really enjoyed the cliff diving. I'm a bit nervous just looking at the photos! Enjoy your time in Greece! Happy Blogging!
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures Joe, thanks. How many did you say fit in those lifeboats?
ReplyDeleteThe video is wonderful, I really like the sunset,too. Tried to send you a pic but couldn't get it through. The pastry reminds me of a strudel and it looks delicious.

Nice pictures! Thank you. But in three cruises I have never seen a picture of my son! He's a senior now. Any chance? Is he really on the boat???
