Cartagena is a Spanish city and a major naval station located on the Mediterranean coast in South-Eastern Spain. Cartagena has been inhabited for over 2200 years. It was founded around 227 BC by the Carthaginians. As far back as the 16th century it was one of the most important naval ports in Spain.
We had such a short time in Cartagena and it was our last day before reaching Barcelona so I really wanted to just stay on the boat. Mom kinda agreed with me, but Dad said No - so we go up and had the usual breakfast. But during breakfast, we saw the Captain. We talked to him for a little bit and told him about my blog and how I was interviewing people and asked if he could spare time for an interview. He said yes and gave us his private number to call after breakfast. We called him and he told us to meet him on Deck 8. He took us to the bridge - that is where they steer the ship - and he showed us some of the equipment. Then we did our interview. After the interview we walked in to Cartagena.
Cartagena had another Roman Theater and my Dad wanted to look at it, but my Mom and I wanted to go shopping. So we split up and then met back by the Roman Theater for chocolate and churros. We had two different kinds of chocolate and the churros were really good. Then it was time to get back onto the boat to sail to Barcelona.
