GOLFE JUAN Golfe Juan was the most looked forward to port Of . . . I t h tire Mediterranean cruise since this was the as t e en ort of call in the Med before returning' home. Golfe P Juan is located in the heart of the French Riviera and I ' I I f d Film is uite near to Cannes, the site of the ame 01 Festival held each year. All members of the crew were h to return to the French Riviera and the warm UPPY friendly French people. Again the Tour Officer was kept quite busy arranging tours up the coast, to the French Alps and the perfume factories. When the word was passed over the phone circuits Anchors Aweigh ' ' M d many hearts were filled with regret of leaving the e and with anticipation for our return trip to Norfolk. It was a unanimous thought throughout the ship that, lt was a good cruise but l'm ready to go home . After weighing anchor in Polensa Bay, Spain, the BARTON closed another chapter of her history, the Mediterranean Cruise of 1961-1962.

I I1 I.. TOULON From 27 January to 4 February BARTON again battled Mother Nature and this time came out on the long end of the stick. Facing seas of nearly the proportions of those of early November thescrew managed to fuel twice on successive days, and in general handled them- selves in the finest tradition of seamanship. The ship suffered almost no damage, nevertheless, everyone was glad to pull into Toulon on the fourth for a well de- served and all too brief liberty and recreation period. There was a bit of trading done here, the American White Hat for the French Navy Cap lPom Pom and alll. As always it was good to return to France. 4 .:.c f .X H ar 3 A 'R M617 , ,,,,r I, ,,,,,,,,,, ci-, LA PEZIA Those who didn't visit the Italian Riviera when we were in Genoa got one last opportunity from I0 to I7 Feb- ruary during our stay in La Spezia, Southernmost point of the famed Riviera Levante. Although this is a quiet spot, especially in the winter, it is one of great scenic value and the camera bugs had a field-day. HLSUC SNA?- i LAY BACK ON IT!
