Portofino, Italy

We sailed from Monaco...as we were leaving the port, 8 could not help but reflect on The day when Grace Kelly sailed into the Harbor before her wedding...can you imagine what she must have felt? She was about to marry her prince and begin a new life, not just as a wife, but a princess in a foreign country...albeit a magical mini kingdom.

















It was a beautiful sail away. poor Papa Joe, however, was sawing some serious logs in the cabin. I sat on deck with many others, while the band played and cocktails were served








And the above picture reminded Papa Joe of the Lake of the Ozarks, party cove... These sailboats were anchored for hours, enjoying the day. party Cove?? I think not!

breakfast today on deck looking over Portofino





We are now off to hike in Portofino!
