Cruise # 31- "Black Sea" Cruise onboard "Crystal Symphony"- July, 2013

For 12 Nights we called the "Crystal Symphony" our Home as we sailed from Rome to Istanbul to the "Black Sea" on the highest rated Cruiseline in the World... Ultra-Luxurious & All-Inclusive "Crystal Cruises"! We've been wanting to sail with these guys for years due to their Quality & Reputation (they've been rated # 1 19 years in a row) and they didn't disappoint. Can a Cruise be perfect? Crystal certainly comes close!! :-) (Read our full review on Crystal Cruises here: http://nancyandshawnpower.com/crystal-cruises-review/)

One of the Biggest highlights of a “Black Sea” Cruise is when u sail through the “Bosporus Straight” that cuts right through Istanbul and separates it’s Europe side from it’s Asia side... did u know that, that Istanbul resides on 2 Continents, the only city in the World to do so! Well, you’ll see more pics on Istanbul at the end of this Gallery but for now check out the “Blue Mosque” on the left & “Hagia Sophia” on the right... what a unique skyline!
