A two-week cruise through the Mediterranean included a number of historical and geographic sites, including Pompeii, Knossos, Ephesus, Istanbul, Mykonos, Athens, Santorini and Sicily. This course is a travelogue view of those places with numerous photos and stories about our experiences there. From the ruins of Pompeii to the magnificent architecture of the Acropolis to the halls of the Vatican, this course offers a look at what we saw.
