We’d already decided to get an open topped Red Bus to take us from the ship to the cathedral, but the traffic was horrendous and I was beginning to wonder if it was such a good idea, after all, but it was. Beautiful buildings although there were hundreds, if not thousands of folk in the cathedral and the grounds. Lots of “Lookie Lookie men” doing good business selling ‘expensive’ bags and other touristy stuff at knock down prices.
The highlights for us were:
- The open topped bus and the cool breeze it created once it was away from the main shopping areas.
- Dates growing on trees.
- Tree lined streets.
- Old wrought iron, ball shaped street lights.
- The Cathedral is magnificent inside and out.
- Stone built windmills. Mostly old and needing some care and attention, but some that looked as if they could be repaired.
- “Lookie Lookie men” everywhere.
- The pond below the cathedral with a ‘crocodile’ in it.
Tomorrow we are at sea again.
