My holiday trip

For my summer holidays, my parents decided to go on a Italy, Greece and Croatia cruise route, with one more family. We should be on the Venice port to board at 5:00 PM on the 23rd of August, but my father preferred to go by car to Venice, before the plane, so the trip started three days before on the 20th of August. Now I will start to explain all the route. To begin with I will talk about the trip by car and then I will talk about the cruise.

The trip started at 11:00 AM on the 20th of August. The first day it wasn't very interesting because we stayed all day travelling by car, we made a stop at 2:00 PM for lunch and another at 9:00 PM when we stopped in Nisa, for had dinner and sleep in a hotel.

The second day, at 8:30 AM we took the car again, and we stopped to have breakfast at 9:30 AM on a petrol station where we could see all Monaco, and then we went to visit Milan and having the lunch and in the afternoon we went to visit Verona including the Juliet house. We slept on a hotel near Verona.

The third day we went by car to Venice. We stayed all the day visiting that city, and at 4.30 PM we headed towards the port to board on the cruise. The rest of the day we didn't do anything interesting, excluding the drill and explore the different parts of the ship.

Now I will explain the six days that I spent on the cruise. I visited Bari, Corfu, Mykonos, Santorini, and Dubrovnik.

Bari and Corfu disappointed me, because I thought that would be more majestic.

The white house's of Mykonos and Santorini were beautiful. When we went to Santorini we went to the city on a donkey, this is typical!

Between the day of Santorini and Dubrovnik we stayed a day on the ship, and with my sister we took the opportunity to go to the gym, it was amazing running on the tape runner whatching the sea.

And the last city was Dubrovnik, which I had been a years ago although we walked again around the wall and as it was sunny, it was hot.

Finally we arrived to Venice were we took the car and we spent all the day going home.

In conclusion, it was a beautiful experience, which I would like to repeat, and if you have the opportunity I recommend it to you.
