The weather is getting us down so we have arranged a short four night trip on a ship from Barcelona to Rome. Not sure if we will arrive in Rome to take part in the Pope elections or even if we can participate in the selection process but who knows.
We plan to fly to Barcelona on Friday and overnight there and catch the Silversea Wind ship and we stop off at Monte Carlo for the night and also at Livorno where we have decided to go to Pisa instead on Florence as we have been to Florence before.
Should be nice and getting the best rags out for packing.
Its not cheap but better than leave for the government to get their hands on.
Watch this space for the full report in due course.
