Med Cruise - 0406 - Day 2-3

Saturday – 1^st April 2006 - Varazze

Travelled to Varazze, a small town approximately 10 Kms from Savona (port where we were supposed to board our cruise). Stayed at the crocodillo hotel, a nice joint. Went for a walk in the evening along the seaside and tried all sorts of treats and meats on sale (something like a farmer’s market). Gelato was yummy as always

Sunday – April 2^nd 2006 - Savona

Went to board our cruise (Costa Fortuna). As we approached the ship, it was the biggest thing that I have seen. The ship drawfed a huge building right next to it. Boarding was slow and painful and done in several “installments”. The emergency drill before departure was sort of interesting. It took several hours to explore the ship and figure it out from end to end.
