Zakynthos, Greece

Visited the island of Zakynthos, Greece on a cruise. City was pretty much all destroyed by earthquakes in 1953, but has been lovingly restored and is now a popular resort city. We took a half day tour sold by our cruise ship, visiting a number of places on the island. The next day was "at sea" while we traveled to Barcelona to board a flight home.
