| Great View from our Cabin |
And what a wonderful suprise it was.
Arrived this morning, Sunday the 21st July and got a great view as the ship docked right alongside the old city, and our cabin was just in the right spot.

| Inside the Walls |
This old walled town was build in the 13th century by the Knights of St John, who were apart of the crusaders, no not the original rugby team!! they where the doctors of the crusades, and where the St John's ambulance takes it's name. Since the crusades the place has been occupied by many different peoples, and recently the Italian's in the early 1900's. Mussolini decided that this would be his place of preference, and between 1918 and 1933 but a lot of money into restoring the old town.
