Adam Athens, home of western civilization-what a place. After negotiating the twisting path from Pireaus, of NeverOnSu.nday fame, to down- town Athens, liberty was found to be excellent. USO. . . sidewalk cafes. . . the King's Palace. . Greek theaters. . . the wine festival at Daphne, and the greatest wonders of them all, the Acropolis and the Parthenon. Thesewere the things we had all heard of, but never hoped to see. Our stay in Greece's beautiful capital was all too short. 5 Z A ' , , fi?

As a first taste of Riviera liberty, San Remo was a joy to behold. Nestled beneath the surrounding grape-arbored hills, the city shone like a well cut j ewel when we first got a good glimpse of her through the low-lying Mediterranean mist.

We left San Remo regretfully and sailed off to seek more adventure to the east.

istanhu Exotic, mysterious, exciting - Istanbul was all of these. . . and more. In this city, farthest po int east in the cruise, VESOLE came in contactwith a different type of culture. The Moslem religion is uniquely dif- ferent from that whichwe know. We were awed by the splendor of the rno s que s and minarets, and a little taken aback by the call to prayer. The open bazaar and the vendors never ceased to amaze us with the variety of goods on sale. Part of the excitement was caused by the following events - Turkish Navy Day and COMCARDIV TWO's surprise inspection. We came out of the latter more than a little proud of our ship. Admiral Ellis said he had never seen such an outstanding DD. l I I P w l r l 1 1 l l 1 I I 1 l
