- we are under sail on with sister ship trailing us. Very exhilarating! (We are somewhere off the Moroccan coast between Tangier and Casablanca)

04/11/2024

We are on board currently docked in Tangier. We are sailing in tandem with the which is docked behind us - with the Silversea Silver Moon behind her. We left Malaga, Spain Saturday and will be onboard for 9 nights with stops in Morocco and the Canary Islands (yesterday we were in Gibraltar.) Tomorrow is a sea day - looking forward to traveling under full sail tomorrow! (Mr. Tasteful is really enjoying the trip!)

- Santos is a classic and refreshing beverage made by mixing wine (red or white) with chunks of fresh fruit and a splash of brandy. Non-alcoholic versions can be made with grape or cranberry juice and a splash of sparkling water. ¡salud!

Last night in Seville - and the hotel’s rooftop terrace is open with this beautiful view ♥️ tomorrow on to Malaga and the next part of our journey

Perfect day to visit the in Granada, Spain 🇪🇸 - well worth the 3-hour drive from Seville. This is the Patio de Los Arrayanes in the Court of the Myrtles. These rectangular pools surrounded by columns and archways represent oases with their cool water and tall palm trees.

Astonishing altarpiece in the Seville Cathedral-each panel depicts an episode in the life of Christ. It took Flemish artists 80 years to complete.

I’m in DC for an event tonight - when I’m here I enjoy visiting someplace new to me. Yesterday it was the Library of Congress with its beautiful reading room, and a couple of great exhibits. An original Gutenberg Bible is on display in the Great Hall. The photography collection exhibit included the first known photo of Lincoln as well as a “hats as architecture” at New York’s Guggenheim. The exhibit about memories included a gorgeous hooked rug depicting the artist’s mother reading a book in a cherry tree. During the walk over I strolled past the Supreme Court and Capitol. Washington is in full bloom!

The joys of travel - unanticipated treats such as this marching band in Stockholm as viewed from our windy, rainy hotel balcony - I LOVE stuff like this! It started at noon with what sounded like thunder - it was actually a cannon shot from a sailing ship at the stroke of 12 - then this marching band came around the corner. It’s the Changing of the Guard which occurs daily during the summer - here’s a link with more information: https://www.forsvarsmakten.se/en/activities/events/the-royal-guards/changing-of-the-guard/

10 seconds of zen - silent windmills and water lapping sounds as we wait our turn to go through a lock on our way to the North Sea and Veere 😌#EmeraldMoments @emeraldcruises.global @giftedtravelnetwork #RiverCruising

Honored to witness @travelbizcoach Vanessa, in her new role as godmother, officially christening the Emerald Luna ♥️ @emeraldcruises.global @giftedtravelnetwork Congratulations Vanessa!!!

Seriously one of the loveliest landscapes I’ve ever seen (or waterscape?) This is at the Natural Bridge in Jasper National Park, B.C., Canada, near the Emerald Lake. #Breathtaking We were on a brief trip as part of our @RockyMountaineer “Passage to the West at Great Leisure” - which started in Calgary, then on to Lake Louise and Banff where we boarded the luxurious and comfortable train cars for 2 days on the rails. We de-trained in Vancouver after an overnight in Kamloops. Lovely Memories! #Canada #BritishColumbia #JasperNationalPark #FairmontHotels @fairmontpalliser @fairmontcll @fairmontbanff @fairmontwaterfront @virtuosoltd @giftedtravelnetwork #UseATravelAdvisor

Art installation at “Soufflé du mon soufflé” (Breath of my breath) at Fondation Vincent Van Gogh, Arles France - first full day On board AmaCello @amawaterways @giftedtravelnetwork

An example of one of the installations at #MeowWolf #Denver - a multi-story collection of installation art pieces - Mr. Tasteful said it reminds him of #WillyWonka - I thought it was more #PeeWeesPlayhouse #USATravel #VisitColorado #VisitDenver #ThanksgivingWeekend #Art #Imagination
