April Showers Posted September 16 Author Share Posted September 16 Saturday, September 16th Alas, we weren't able to enjoy more time in Mauritus. Those pesky pirates 🏴☠️ arrived and were looking for us! We dashed aboard ship and headed north. We passed through the Suez Canal overnight and have made it safely to the Delphi, Greece. Whew! Delphi was considered by the ancient Greeks to be the center of the world. Here we can see the Sanctuary of Athena with its circular temple, or Tholos, and the Ancient Theatre of Delphi which offers breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains. Add a circle to your layout. It can be an embellishment, a frame, paint, stitching or whatever you choose- it just needs to be round. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A-M Posted September 16 Share Posted September 16 Oh! I will enjoy seeing some ancient ruins. Who wants to join me at The Greek Mediterranean Restaurant " To Patriko Mas" ? I do like the look of the views from there and I would like to try some Greek Ravani which has lots of coconut in it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MariJ Posted September 16 Share Posted September 16 Whew, I am glad we dodged those pirates, thanks Captain April! I'm so excited to be in Greece, it's a place I always wanted to visit. I'll try the restaurant with you, Anne Marie @A-M, but I'll have something without coconut - I do not like coconut! 🥥 🤣 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Florida granny Posted September 16 Share Posted September 16 Whew! I'm glad we got away from those pirates! 😮 And Greece sure is beautiful. I'd love to join you @A-M and @MariJ for breakfast. Marilyn, you can give me your coconut, lol. I have one question: @Tracy and @mimes1 Where did you get those bandannas? It looks like the ones the the pirates were wearing. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boatlady Posted September 17 Share Posted September 17 I want to join you for breakfast...coffee and coconut...count me in. I love Greek food!!! @Florida granny we need to meet for Greek food for real !!! Maybe Hella's has Ravani that I can try while you try something without coconut. @Tracy I didn't know you had your captains license but you sure could control the ship...it was great going fast. Now that we are under weigh again I think I will spend some time in my hot tub to ease my aches and pains. Anyone want to join me, it's great sitting there watching the stars go by.

Boatlady Posted September 17 Share Posted September 17 April I forgot to post the link to my Thailand page. I'm sorry to be so late with my link.

I saw you at the Captain's Table for dinner the other night...you looked stunning. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

April Showers Posted September 17 Author Share Posted September 17 Sunday, September 17th The Castalian Spring It is believed that everyone visiting Delphi for religious purposes, including athletes, were required to purify themselves in the clear but icy waters of the Castalian spring. This spring initially had seven jets with the head of the lions, but only two remain today. The spring is made with a marble-lined basin and benches on the sides. The Oracle of Delphi, who was famous throughout the ancient Greek world for divining the future and was consulted before all significant activities, lived in this sanctuary built in the 8th century B.C. Add a watercolor wash or some type of water to your layout. Post your “Gradient/Greece” inspired layout in the World Tour Gallery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mimes1 Posted September 18 Share Posted September 18 Here's my Gradient-Greece LO It's been a busy week! Thanks @April Showers for the great tour! @Boatlady, save me a spot in that hot tub to watch the stars. After being hauled away from the dunes, and then trading the parrot off my shoulder with the pirates for a lovely green bandana souvenir, I'm beat and will enjoy the change of pace! Looking forward to seeing @Tracy, @Florida granny and @MariJ. Maybe @A-M and @scrapgarden will catch up with us! 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

April Showers Posted September 18 Author Share Posted September 18 Monday, September 18th The next stop on our World Tour is Florence, Italy! Known as the Cradle of the Renaissance, Florence is a captivating city that left an indelible mark on art, culture, and politics. Some of the most famous artists in history and some of the art world's greatest masterpieces are located in Florence. You can see works by Michelangelo, Botticelli, Donatello, Leonardo DaVinci, Raphael and many more. Start a new layout with “Art” as your inspiration. It can be one of the masterpieces shown, or an artwork of your choosing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've always wanted to go to Italy and I'm excited to see some of the classic art pieces. Let's hope that everyone from this ship behaves and there are no museum incidents so we have to make a fast getaway! 😱 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Florida granny Posted September 18 Share Posted September 18 Wow, that hot tub party was the best! Thanks, @Boatlady for organizing it and all the food and thanks @MariJ for the music. We did keep that cute pool boy busy, though, didn't we? Ah... now time to relax in Florence and admire the art. I wonder if one or two of the smaller pieces would fit in my carry-on. No, probably not. Maybe. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
