Day 2 we moved anchor & sailed to the capital city, Castries.

Our first raining day and it was kinda nice not to be super hot for a change. We were going to explore the local beach, but opted for duty free shopping at ship terminal and a taxi ride to a couple of scenic overlooks. Gave Cathy & Rod tour of ship and caught up on getting my holiday bookings for Macchu Picchu set up - so many pieces and logistics! View of ship from scenic overlook.


TASMANIA has always had a meanacing sound to me, probably because of the famed Tasmania Devil! So it was a nice surprise to find such a lovely, friendly place. Hobart is the capital of the island state, and is Australia's second oldest city, blending colonial history with dramatic natural scenery. The population of greater Hobart is roughly 250,000. The city sits between the sparkling Derwent River and the towering slopes of Mount Wellington , making for a picturesque waterfront.
