WE ARE ON THE REGENT SEVEN SEAS VOYAGER AND ON OUR WAY TO ROME

  Let me begin our final day in Barcelona with lunch again in the same Eurostars Hotel, for our steak experience the day before was fabulous.  We ordered their sea bass special for two. The whole fish ended up being two filets. Plusa cooked vegges plate. Lunch with beer and Dewars White Label. There was then a long wait before we could leave for our ship.  But finally, at 4:45PM we left.  Final photo of Eurostars Hotel. Almost an hour later we reached the Barcelona Port where we could see the Regent Seven Seas Voyager, which is 21 years old with a capacity of 706 passengers and a crew of 447.  In the past, Forbes reported this was the most expensive cruise in the Asian region.

COTTON CLUB TO VOYAGER TO EUROSTARS

Cities don't seem to have bus tours anymore.  You now only see these jump-on-off buses. This is the W Hotel we also use. As we approached Terminal B, where the Regent Seven Seas Voyager was supposed to be docked, we saw instead the Oceania Vista. Turned out that our ship had  technical problems and was delayed to another port for fixing.  So we had to be bussed to an overnight hotel. After a ride of 45 minutes to Sitges, we see the Eurostars Hotel above a golf course. Excellent view from our room.  Nice and new hotel. Lunch was extraordinary.  Steak with beer, red wine from this region and sides. A neighboring table ordered fish, so had to take this photo. We finished lunch at 2:30PM, so thought we'd just have salad for dinner in the bar.  Just about the worst Caesar Salad I've ever had. Walked 2188 steps
