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.
The Summer Palace is a vast ensemble of lakes, gardens and palaces from the Qing Dynasty. It's a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
BeiJing, used to be Peking - so we had to have the famous Peking Duck!
We left the Great Wall and went to THE MING TOMBS - however we were disappointed to find there was nothing there except the grounds.
