We docked at Ceute just after 8.00
Denis had to be up and out early as he was helping on a tour to Tetouan (Morocco). I had an afternoon walking tour of Ceute so I had a nice leisurely morning. No football of any note for either of us to watch today.
The walking tour was very pleasant and only a couple of hours long. We started at the old fortifications, originally built by the Portuguese.
And then moved on to the more modern parts
Eventually ending up at the Pillars of Hercules
I was back at the ship shortly after 15.00. I quickly got ready for the rest of the day and decamped to the Observation Lounge for the cocktail of the day, to read a book and to wait for Denis.
He arrived back shortly after 16.00. Apart from a hiccup with guest passports at the border between Spain and Morocco he seemed to have had a good trip.
Tonight we have another bridge session and I’m going to try some more stargazing- especially as I have managed to borrow a pair of binoculars.
The ship isn’t leaving port until the early hours of the morning so both the bridge session and the stargazing might prove difficult. Once we leave we are off to Tangiers, our final stop
