The streets of the center of Cadiz in Spain

Le stradine del centro di Cadice in Spagna

The streets of the center of Cadiz in Spain.
Walking through the historic center of the beautiful city of Cadiz you walk along these very characteristic streets where the windows almost all have these very protruding wooden frames.
And then, normally, the ship docks right in front of the center and in five minutes you are already there!

Here's where the town is located:

It is probably the oldest city founded in the western Mediterranean area by the Phoenicians in the 11th century BC, although its birth is now officially dated back to the end of the 8th century BC.
Founded with the original name of Gadir (in Phoenician: Gdr, fortress, with the same etymology as Agadir in Morocco) on what was once a small archipelago and now a single island, to exploit the rich trade routes with the Atlantic Ocean in the copper and tin trade. In ancient Greece it was known as Gadeira and in the times of the Roman Empire as Gades from which the current gentilic name of gaditano derives.

The characteristic Via Penisola Levante in Sestri Levante.
One of the most beautiful streets in Sestri, the one that leads first to the small walk of the Baia del Silenzio and then, continuing, goes up the Penisola (hence the name) and arrives at the church of San Nicolò and the Castelli.
I used the telephoto for this which is a little squashed but the effect is desired!

The Costa Diadema seen from the streets of Stavanger

La Costa Diadema vista dalle viuzze di Stavanger

The Costa Diadema seen from the streets of Stavanger.
Until a few months ago I was on board the Costa Diadema (of Costa Crociere) doing fjord cruises.
After many years I went out for a walk in the colorful neighborhood of Fargegaten (which I absolutely didn't remember) and from there the yellow chimney of the ship was sticking out.

Have you ever taken a Costa cruise to the fjords?

Costa Diadema is a cruise ship of the Genoese company Costa Crociere. Upon completion, it was the largest ship ever built under the Italian flag. On 30 October 2014, the public launch took place in the same shipyard, giving way to the inaugural events, while on 1 November it set sail for the vernissage cruise departing from Trieste. On 7 November, the ship was christened in the port of Genoa.
