I did it! I have wanted to try out a segway for a long time, so when the opportunity came up in Cartegena, I took it. It really is not that difficult, and it is FUN. I was not able to take too many pictures, but I did manage this one.
This picture, taken at an overlook above the city, show how I really felt about the experience. It is one of my favorite pictures.
After we had practice and ridden around on level ground for a while, we stopped to see the first electric submarine, built in Spain in the 1880's.
A year later an identical one appeared in France. Can you say "industrial espionage?"
In the morning I was able to walk around the city for a while to admire the architecture and the ruins of a Roman amphitheater.

I also saw the world's largest sailing ship. Notice the size of the boat in the foreground.
Darrell took a tour to Murcia, a neighboring town. I am including some of his pictures, but I cannot tell you anything about them. I just think they look nice.
To the right - another Old Beautiful Cathedral; of course almost of them are old and beautiful (DZ)
They do love their flowers in Spain as well as in Great Britain, Australia, New Zealand, etc.
