We're looking at a cruise out of Tokyo that includes South Korea.  Our idea is to spot check cities you probably wouldn't see otherwise and think whether you might return for a longer visit later.  
how many of these "spot checked" cities have you been back to for a longer visit?

Barcelona is one, Rome is on our list to spend some time, maybe Sorrento and the Amalfi coast, we have not done that many cruises (yet).

This is a bridge that pivots to cross the Suez Canal, they had maybe ten of them.

For us... Amsterdam, Barcelona and Florence - so far.

In the future, we would like to spend more time in Kotor, Trieste and Sicily.

These were RR bridges that pivot on a central point to cross the canal, not yet quite completed.  There are parallel canals at that point.

Sorrento was OK. We didn't find the Amalfi to be all that. Nice, sure. Worthy of a trip? Not for us.

Been there, done that with Rome. No need to return, other than maybe to fly to.
