Cruise Ports

Hey everyone back with my last cruise blog. This blog is about the ports we visited while on the TUI Discovery ship.  I have always wanted to visit Italy and it did not disappoint.

Elba (Italy)

We had to get tender boats from the ship to travel it Elba it was only a short distance.This little island has 150 beaches and we didn't manage to visit one ha ha. We took a stroll around the island looked in the little shops which were a bit pricey. The island had some beautiful blooms of flowers and the best mojito (non alcoholic) I ever tasted we sat there and watched the world go by.

The next stop was Marina di Carrara (Italy)

A little town characterized by the unique apuan alps that protect the town from the cold winds.
We came across this lovely little bakery.   That had nutella cupcakes :O

We took a trip to the town of Carrrara by bus sadly most of the shops shut from 1 o clock till around 4ish. We did take a look in the local museum and window shopped.

Next was San Remo (Italy)

This was my favorite part of Italy it was much more lively then the other two spots we had been.Lots of shops,Restaurants and loads of dogs the dogs were all allowed in the shops which was cool. we went for pizza and ice cream it was amazing defiantly one of the best pizza's I ever had.

France (Toulon)
 I wasn't expecting much from this port but it surprised me and was my favorite of all the places we visited. We walked off the boat to the marina short walk to the shopping center with lots of different shops something for everyone. We checked TripAdvisor and seen there was a market no far from the shopping center. It was mostly fruit and veg but the colorful foods and atmosphere was great with lots of boutique shops all around to browse in.We did the usual and stopped for pizza and ice cream on the marina. It really was beautiful.

Love the colors and charterer of this place.

Kinder Beuno Ice cream :)

The last stop was Ibiza 

I pictured it to be a lot different but we were in the town center about 45 minutes away from San Antonio where the party is at We were only here for the day time. Again a few shops but nothing much to be honest I wouldn't be rushing back there.

And that is it everyone  hope you enjoyed this little blog as I said France and San Remo were my favorite. It was great to get to see all these places in such a short time another bonus of cruising ;)
