Morocco 2023-2024 Day 8 (12/26/2023) A Day of Relaxation in Taghazout

Finally a day of Total Relaxation at the hotel in Taghazout.  This place is incredible and we can walk right out of our room to the pool and beach.  This is an all inclusive resort, so if you want a drink, food, or whatever, you just walk up to the bar and order.

2-24-2022 First Full Day in San Juan

Image
After Breakfast and another Covid test we took a walk to the old town of  San Juan.  It is a beautiful old town but with very narrow streets, so all the traffic is one way.  Stopped for a refreshing drink at the waterfront, then a Taxi back to the hotel (more walking than we normally do in 3-4 days). Beautiful Coastline Capital Building Castillo San Cristobal Old San Juan Reminds me of New Orleans, you can really see the French influence on the architecture   Statue of Cristobal Colon (Christopher Columbus) For Brian's Benefit Cocktails at La Casita San Juan and Boarding the Viking Sea

The island of Antigua (pronounced by the locals as Antika) is one of the islands in the nation of Antigua and Barbuda, the two main islands are accompanied by a number of small islands many uninhabited.  They are still trying to recover from Hurricane Marie that hit in 2017, and no sooner did they start to make some strides forward Covid hit.  It has severely affected this country.  We were the first to pull in, but were shortly followed by the Norwegian Gem.  By the time we got back from our tour the Emerald Princess had pulled into the between us. The Catholic Church is Bright Pink Many of the churches, like this one are built of Ballast Stones that were on the old sailing ships.  When the ship was empty they would fill the hold with ballast stones for stability, but when they had a load to take back to Europe, they would dump the stones and fill the hold.

The current fortress has actually never seen a major battle since it was built in the 1800's. The fortress is at the confluence of the Rhine and Main Rivers. Looking across the River from where we were docked Ehrenbreitstien sits atop the ridge. As we were leaving the ship, there was a statue of Wilhelm I the first Emporer and king of Prussia The tour guides are dressed in period costume to play  the part of a British Engineering officer who had been assigned to learn about the fortification of Ehrenbreitstien in the eraly 1800's The only approach to the fortress was across a batttlefield where cannons capable of firing 1000 meters were aimed. If you got across the field, you would have to breach a field gate.  If you got past the field gate, you would b...
