Back in Kotor, Montenegro April 22, 2017

We were just in this port 6 days ago but the weather is bright and sunny today as compared to the rain and cold we had on the previous visit.  Instead of taking one of the tours we decided to just walk around the old city.  Being Saturday the local open market was very busy, everyone seemed to be buying flowers, both bedding type plants and hanging baskets.  Many of the vendors were selling olives and oils as well as fruits and vegetables.  We went into the walled city and walked around for about an hour.  Kotor is known for being the "cat" city and the cats are everywhere.  We saw cats of every color and many of them just lay in the shops and on the benches and chairs.  We looked in some of the shops but did not buy anything.  We were back on the ship in time for a light lunch as we have a reservation in the Prime 7 restaurant tonight.

Our ship was docked so close that it looked like it was parked on the street!

Sorrento, Italy April 25, 2017

For our last cruise port we visited Sorrento, Italy.  Sorrento overlooks the bay of Naples and you can usually see Mt Vesuvius quite clearly...
