Sete.. a lovely town to just stroll around.  The last time we were here we took the all day excursion to Carcassone.  It was totally worth the trip! Not to be missed.

On this cruise however.. we didn't take any shore excursions.  My goal was to make this as a relaxing week as possible.. a week where we didn't have to set an alarm in the morning on any of the days.  We have been to all of the ports at least once so there was never any hurry to get up and go early.  I'm glad to report that my goal of a very mellow week was realized. 😊

Back on board for the day's destination lunch at the Windows Cafe.  My favorite place to dine is on the back deck with a glass of wine in my hand.. ahh..🍷

We skipped the delicious looking Mexican buffet and ate at Aqualina instead.

Another amazing meal!

Aqualina's menu is the same every night.

Do you have a team for trivia?  We find that having representation from UK, Europe and Oz (plus us Yanks) gives you a real edge!

😉Alas it was just a team of two. Both of us New Yorkers born and bred.

We had no edge at all.. a lot of fun yes..  but no edge whatsoever.😵‍💫

Sleep7,

   What a great review - photos, menus, daily programs, etc.  Appreciate the time you took to do it.  You have now increased my excitement level for our upcoming Azamara cruise significantly.

   Wishing you great health now and in the future.  Hope there will be many more cruises and happy adventures to come for you both.

It was a short less than 10 minute walk to the harbor.

There is a little train in Marseille with a big line.

A fresh catch for sale at the head of the harbor.

DW, who had her head shaved for cranioplasty to smooth a previous surgery, said she hopes you have a hat. If you’re not used to short hair, you may get burned before you know it.
