Anchored outside of the huge lagoon known as 'Mar Menor', I'll go i to it when the bridge lifts in the morning. The lighthouse at Cabo de Palos.

Very impressed with Cartageña. Lots to see, a good vibe and a university town, it nice not to be completely surrounded by people my age or older. I would stay longer but if I don't go tomorrow then I'll be stuck here for a week. Hopefully I'll visit again on the way back and join a guided tour of the town. The Romans have come to town. And so has the Saga cruise ship, I'll be on that one day. Interesting facts: There are 23 Cartagenas (or sound alikes) in the Americas, 2 in the Med and one in the Philippines. The submarine was invented here, although I bet there's a few laying claim to that.
