Gibraltar is the most anticipated port in the entire Med since a stop there signals the end of a long deployment and all hands get busy measuring the 3347 miles to Norfolk on our daily track chart.

A Spanish possession in the middle of the western Mediterranean, Palma features the castle of Jaime I and low-priced play, grounds. Over 300 air flights and six cruise ships arrive at Palma, the Miami of the Med, weekly. Here courtesy of the yacht Alatola was extended to men of the WOOD, Our first visit was slightly premature, but the second was right in the midst of the tourist season. Many will remember Palma as one of the best ports of our Med cruise. Goins ashore- Night Life in Palma. , s 'gf , f p W Q rv- QI I .jg J A r if . . rx.
