Troy

Friday May 9th

This morning I got up at 6am so I could experience the journey through the Dardanelles. The sea was very calm and no breeze so quite eerie.

We are now docked in Troy and seem to be the only people on board ship. Everyone left for the day or else we’ve been taken over and the kidnappers didn’t know we were still in our cabin.

We’ve had a wander around and can advise you that we have found the Bayeux Tapestry, although I wasn’t aware that it was missing.

Always on my mind, I have found a new toy for Taffie. I’m sure she’ll love it. Seems perfect. No price which is always a concern however….

Conversation I had with Glenys while enjoying a leisurely breakfast with no-one else in the cafe…

Glenys: “look, I think that’s the Hagia Sophia”

Me: “we’re in Troy, not Istanbul”

To be fair, we are both still quite tired and each day is currently blurring into the next.

More later when something interesting happens or when I have something to say. Or not…
