Katakolon, Patras and Ferry to Ancona: Millenium series 24
Our departure from Greece was a pleasant experience, as travelled to Patras, an interesting and busy seaport. Here we caught the Super Ferry which was more like a cruise ship, with all the amenities, for an overnight cruise to Ancona, Italy. Ancona is also an interesting place and on arrival we had a pleasant encounter with the Italian soccer team. Our hotel was lovely and our overnight stay pleasant. Please join me as we continue our travels. There are photos and links and instant links to our Greek adventures if you have missed them. Mary Ellen Bradshaw
