If you’ve ever wanted to cruise out of Europe, by far the easiest city to leave from is Barcelona. It’s a quick $45 Uber ride to the port. Not to mention the views getting there as well as once you’re on the ship are stunning.
This time the ship will be the MSC Grandiosa. MSC is unique in that they load and depart passengers in every port they visit. More of that in a bit. But for now… let’s say hello Barcelona. I’ve missed you.

| From the rear of the ship you can see La Familia |

 |
| Dessert anyone? |
 |
| So many sweets to choose from |
 |
| Yup that’s chocolate |
 |
| Nothing like hour-old cheese |
 |
| Amazing score locating this room |
 |
| Yes that’s a personal hot tub |
 |
| LCD roof that changes regularly |

| The food on MSC easily tops current US ships |
Bags unpacked. Time for bed as tomorrow is the first port day.
