Day 92
Ajjacio, Corsica, France- NAPOLEON all the way

He was born here and everything is Napoleon- house, cookie tin….

And again, we are tied up to a pier very close to the main tourist area of town.

We walked off the ship and across the street boarded a little train that brought us up to the tip the Island to Les Sanguinaires which are rocky outcrops with light house and small fort. I bought Nougat from a merchant at the little store. It was a lovely ride, the weather still balmy and again another lovely blossoming spring day to enjoy.
We returned to town and walked the lovely market area with flowers, meats, cheeses and pastries; many merchants were selling woven palms as we are approaching the Easter season.
There was a car race arriving at the pier, we watched that for a while and went home to a lovely sail away free drinks party- the 3rd or 4th of the trip.- very nice
