Drinking Champagne in Albania
Albania, Crossroads of Empires: Crete to Venice
After a relaxing early afternoon on board, we “surprised” the passengers with a stop at Porto Polermo! It was incredible. We pulled alongside this teeny tiny dock which felt like it was in the middle of nowhere. The hotel department disembarked first thing and ran to Ali Pasha’s Castle, an old abandoned castle right on the water. We were the only ones there. When we walked to the entrance of the castle it was illuminated with kerosene lanterns! It was beautiful and quite romantic. On the rooftop terrace, the Le Levant hotel staff set up a bar and served champagne and appetizers! It was such a special treat!
