Day 208: Cannes, France. Wealth and beauty on the beach, French food, too. #UltimateWorldCruise 
Day 207: Ajaccio, Corsica. Starting France off right - Napoleon’s birthplace and such - toys in the harbor speak for themselves… #UltimateWorldCruise 
Day 206: Portofino, Italy. Ferry to a bus to a train to Cinque Terre region - beautiful costal towns for the rich and famous / tons of tourists, too. #UltimateWorldCruise 
Day 205: Carrara, Italy. Hop on train to Pisa then to Florence. Met with wife’s cousins for lunch - crazy crowds at Academia so punted on the real David and saw replica instead - Italy in summer is a nightmare. #bitcoin #UltimateWorldCruise 
Day 204: Civitavecchia, Italy - closest cruise ships can get to Rome (5 parked outside today). Bussed in - hit the mandatory fountains, steps, and piazzas - (Trevi off/being cleaned / Navona boarded up), Pantheon, Forum, and Colosseum - all packed with tourists and steamy hot as hell (no time for Vatican City or much else). #UltimateWorldCruise 
Day 203: Naples, Italy. After the mandatory ‘shell’ merchant visit, we sweat our way through Pompeii before returning to the city for lunch and the scene. #UltimateWorldCruise

Day 201: Valletta, Malta. The walled city was established in the 1500s by the Knights of St. John, a Roman Catholic order. It’s known for museums, palaces, statues, grand churches, shops, and restaurants. #UltimateWorldCruise 
Day 200/274: At sea today so all I have is the #sunset …. thanks #bitcoin #UltimateWorldCruise 
Day 199: Kotor, Montenegro. Another quaint walled city on the Adriatic - enjoyed the local EVOO and had a great lunch. #UltimateWorldCruise 
Day 198: Dubrovnik, Croatia. The 16th century OldTown is a must see - especially for Game of Thrones fans but regular tourists will enjoy it as well. #UltimateWorldCruise 
Day 197: Split, Croatia. Great ‘Old Town’ filled with Churches, ancient ruins, plazas, shops, and restaurants plus an eco-tuktuk ride after lunch. #UltimateWorldCruise 
That monkey has been off the back for decade plus so hesitant to try - agree booze and caffeine have negative effect. Glad it worked for you.

Day 192: Ravenna, Italy. Caught the train to Bologna - few sights, great lunch! #UltimateWorldCruise
