Our ship anchored
This trip was my first cruise and my first time in Europe! I took an 8-day cruise on the Harmony V with my mother in August and had a wonderful time! We sailed on rivers and went through locks and explored beautiful city centers in Spain, ate local dishes such as paella and sangria and encountered beautiful architecture and beautiful gelato in Lisbon!

Sardines and Flamenco
It seems that wherever I go in the world, I always seem to get lucky in being in the right place at the right time for festivals. When I was traveling in Colombia, I happened upon both the flower festival in Medellin and the salsa festival in Cali. I also was in Mexico for the Day of the Dead celebrations!
