Day 2 - Las Setas de Seville (Wild Mushrooms)

Seville has the largest wooden structure in the World. It is a cluster of wild mushroom shapes constructed on top of a marketplace in the center of Seville. It was a design competition, who by a German Architect and on top of the mushrooms is a walkway and terrace with 360 degree views of the city. There are 3500 pieces of wood held together by 16 Million screws! It is super cool to look at and the views were great. Your ticket to go up and view the walkways is good for a daytime and night time trip. Sadly I couldn't see the night time version, because we set sail at 6pm, but  Annie was able to go back and forward me photo's. I also used a couple photos from fellow ship mate Basia's post,  because she has a great eye and her shots are fantastic!

Singapore - Little India

By Pat Patick • August 11, 2026
Little India is a neighborhood in Singapore that I wanted to explore becase I love Indian food and their Temple's have such unique gods and Architecture, super colorful and detailed. Below is the Sri Veeramakaliamman Temple, Singapore's first temple dedicated to Veeramakaliammam or the Kali , a fierce incarnation of Shiva's wife and the "Destroyer of Evil" .

KOH CHANG, THAILAND

By Pat Patrick • July 26, 2026
We just relaxed on the Island of Koh Chang, Thailand. It's one of the largest Thai Islands in the Gulf of Thailand and it has a dense, steep jungle & National Park covering the interior of the Island, which extends off shore, to coral reefs. The coast line is dotted with beaches and villages. This was a tender port, so we decided to stay on the Island for 3 nights, to be able to experience the nightlife. Turns out, it is low season, so nightlife was pretty sleepy. However, we did find a new favorite night time activity! Any Guesses?!?
