Previously, we always booked the onshore excursions through the cruise company because I didn't have enough confidence to do it independently. But now that we have so much travel under our belts, I think I could pull it off. I really like that you were able to visit a local market. Was it hard not to buy much food since I imagine that the cruise kept you rather well fed? And those are really magnificent floral arrangements for such a cheap price.
