....was wonderful and very frustrating at the same time! We went down all kinds of little roads, came across little villages and churches, got lost, saw areas we never would have seen on a tour or a bus, and met interesting, friendly people. The frustrating part was driving on the wrong side of road, very cranky shifting gear, (no automatic).

I've been on two cruises: first one was on one of the Norwegian cruise lines. Fantastic, wonderful, food, very relaxing, and restful. The other was a Greek ship, smaller, that was part of a tour (part land touring by bus). Disappointed in the food on it, and kind of smelly bathroom. (Funny, the things you remember!)
