May 8 Gibraltar Had a grand time here. Our guide for the Rock walk tour was fantastic :lol: :lol: A slideshow of the still pictures Tramway up and walk down. The monkeys behaved beautifully :lol: Well, Webshots has the quickest upload, that I have found. http://travel.webshots.com/video/3002871240056925461vBfaUD A brief video clip from St. Michaels Cave Afterwards, we were supposed to go to the Hideout Caves, but they were having power problems there, and the lights were out. So we went out to Europa Point with where the lighthouse is. My dialogue is not correct on this. It WAS thank God, the freigher, not the tanker :shock: that sank. Yes, that is a Mosque, a gift from the King of Saudi Arabia, supposedly to be seen by all those sailing through the Strait. Our day was pretty misty, so I doubt that anyone could see it too well More here on the ship sinking saga http://www.iht.com/articles/ap/2007/08/13/europe/EU-GEN-Spain-Ship-Collision.php http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Flame Gibraltar Sailaway Party in the Funnel Bar. Dance hosts, in the jackets, were being kept busy :mrgreen: One of my table mates, Sally, was MOST distressed that dances with the same woman were limited :shock: :shock: I never saw Sally, except at meals. We didn't hangout in the same places :roll:

Slide show and videos very nice. Sally must have had her eye on one of the dance hosts. :D

:D :D :D On ALL of them, I think :mrgreen:

All or any :?: :wink: :lol:

Oh, I rather imagine that any one of them would have done nicely :wink:

Great video's and pictures Liz. :)

Wonderful, Liz! Outstanding video of the Barbary apes! :D

Just catching up on everything, Liz....loving the review, videos and slideshows :mrgreen: Looking forward to the next instalment :D

Rumors had been flying the night before as to whether or not we would be able to get into Malta Harbor.. I was up early and on deck, and it was apparent VERY quickly that this wouldn't happen :cry: :cry: Cold and windy on deck, so filmed out my porthole :D Also another cabin tour, this time narrated :mrgreen: http://travel.webshots.com/video/3007058290056925461BGwDtk Think I actually attended a lecture in the morning, but can't really remember about what :oops: but had a great extra sea day :D Sunday, May 7. Sami Sami was beautiful :!: :!: :D Tour took us first to the Dragon Cave, then out through the countryside to the winery, and then to the Melisani Cave and back to Sami Video from Melisani Cave http://travel.webshots.com/video/3044328830056925461YUWqBy Tender back to QE2. I waited for the next tender, so that I could sit up top. Of course, by then, a long line had formed, but the crew member let me go ahead, which is what I was thanking him for :lol: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kGy-iTPu4Ms Sail-away from Sami. Gosh, it was SO pretty :lol: http://travel.webshots.com/video/3039208940056925461vbhboR Monday, May 8 Dubrovnik.....ports were coming fast and furiously :shock: Absolutely LOVED Dubrovnik. It is amazing :!: :!: :lol: :lol: We tendered into the Old Harbour, no where near the new bridge, which is on the other side.....a shuttle ride away. We could simply walk to the Old City.....10 seconds. I found the closest entrance to the wall, went up, and walked......counter-clockwise Unbelievable :!: :!: :lol: Had seen a "Cold Drinks with a Beautiful View" from the top of the wall.....just past the canon. Once down, finding it, was NOT EASY, but I did......asked & asked & asked :!: :lol: Definitely worth the hunt :D A video of a particularly beautiful place on the wall http://travel.webshots.com/video/3074347470056925461YXGimE And another with more from Cold Drinks, Beautiful View http://travel.webshots.com/video/3053033830056925461ZtstiV Afterwards I wandered around in the Old Town. They had a band playing for us :D and then went to the "main street" and "people watched" for a while http://travel.webshots.com/video/3020504220056925461eAmtSC

Like this shot from your video. Seems familiar

My gosh, it does, doesn't it :D Like your Avatar :mrgreen: :D

Great pix and videos, Liz! I think you have discovered another "Cold Drinks with the Most Beautiful View" place!!! 8) Thought maybe it was the same as the one we went to but looks different. :D Will have to try that one the next time we are in Dubrovnik. I will ask you for directions. :lol: :lol: :lol:

I thought it looked different from yours :!: :!: :!: Yeah, like I could find this again :roll: :lol:

Terrific photos and videos, Liz :D Sami looks wonderful, and so pleased you enjoyed Dubrovnik, it's a great port :mrgreen:
