Buongiorno Napoli
We have arrived to the airport at 10 am, it was of one terminal in size. We were all crammed into one line waiting to stamp our passports, my bladder was willing to explode under the effect of the 3 bottles of wine I had onboard, waiting till we landed was not a good idea.

Ναυπλία, Ναύπλιο, Ναύπλιον…Or the Old town of NAFPLIO.
The city has multiple names Greek Nafplio, Byzantine Nafplio, ancient Nafplia. The ottoman also called it Mora Yenişehir, or Peloponnese's new city.

Essaouira…A little gem in Morocco
Every city in Morocco has an "old medina", the old town confined within its fortress wall. Once you are off at the bus station, the town seems chaotic and dirty, a 5 minutes taxi ride will get you to a charming castle; all blue and white. The first thing you'll see outside the gates is the fishing port.
