We slept in a little, did the coffee routine, took showers and I did a little blog update. We watched a Carnival Cruise pull into the dock a little down the waterfront. It came by the entrance to the marina really close.

Donna wanted to go down to Market Street so we decided to visit Fleet Landing for lunch and then shop the shops nearby. Lunch was so-so. Typical fern bar type food with a view of the river. Ho-hum!

Shopping the old market buildings was also Ho-Hum! There were some unique items, but most were just more made in China stuff. All of it hugely overpriced.

The afternoon had really heated up and neither of us was up for a long walk back, so we boarded the free trolley back to the visitor’s center. It seemed like lots of folks had the same idea. At the center we changed trolleys and headed back to the Maritime marina. Back at the marina, we find new boaters have arrived and we now have neighbors again. We exchange a few pleasantries as they head out to tour the town.

Back on the boat, we relax and then take a nap. It’s a rough life.
