Welcome to Portonovi

So the ship moved again. This time a few hours north to the beautiful port of Portonovi.

To be honest, I've never been to a place like this; a playground for millionaires. All around the place there are yachts and super expensive resorts. We aren't even allowed to fish or swim in the pristine waters. It's really remarkable.

But its also winter, so the port is a ghost town. There aren't any wealthy tourists visiting, only poor missionaries, and as such, the town feels deserted. It was surreal walking through an empty 'Norwegian Village' with only an empty pool and a stray cat for company. 

But after a few minutes walking and signs of life! There were some locals teens playing basketball, so I joined in! I hope and pray this is the start of a great connection.

I also moved cabin. It was quite the epic tale of drama and betrayal (I betrayed myself by losing my keys for a day). In any case, I've settled in well! Guess which bed is mine.

I've also finished engine training at last! But more of that another day!
