2012 Celebrity Cruise

 

We left for an 11 day cruise at the end of September. We flew from Boston to Rome where we joined our next door neighbors from Florida. We spent our first afternoon in Italy walking around Rome. The following morning, we boarded the ship after a 1 1/2 hour bus ride from our hotel.

The cruise intinerary included the following stops - the island of Santorini, Greece; Istanbul, Turkey; Ephesus, Turkey; Athens, Greece, the island of Mykonos, Greece and Naples, Italy returning to Rome for our return to the US.

Below is a short (we think since we took a lot of pictures) slide show of our trip.
