A disappointing trip today. Oman
has developed a lot in the last 50 years since the son of the Sultan deposed his father in a bloodless coup.
We went to the source of water , gardens closed. Then we visited the grand mosque, the largest in south Oman. We saw the outside of Sultans palace; walked around and they were harvesting coconuts. Had a snack at the Crown Plaza hotel and got WiFi. Saw some frankincense trees that the region is famous for.
When we returned to the ship there was a big welcome from crew including captain sommelier and other managers music and dancingLæs mere

Lost another half hour . My phone and Fitbit couldn't cope. I missed my alarm and nearly missed my trip!!
A lot of security at cruise terminal . It took a long time to get through.
Mumbai was originally taken over by the Portuguese but then handed to George? English king.

British built a lot of buildings in 19c. Drove past central station amazing building.
Walked past law courts impressive building.
Then we went to central market;
fruit and veg also birds cats and dogs
Visited Dabbawalas who collects food from people's homes and delivery it to their place of work.
Then we got on train to Mahalaxmi station to see the largest laundry and delivery operation. Train was disappointingly not crowded but the doors were open all the time. Great lunch at hotel on Marine Drive lots of different curries.

Went on the Goan Forts trip.. Stopped at a local market which was just a few shops by the road. I walked up to a local church which was more interesting. Very neglected looking outside but inside there was a fabulous gold altar and other decoration.
Next stop was 17c Aguada fort. Large water tank and a light house, the oldest in the Asian continent. Great views of Arabian Sea and north Goan coast.vIt was very hot. A lot of Indian families visiting. Then we went to Reis Mogos fort which was much quieter. It was the last line of defence for the Portuguese during the Goan liberation movement war.Læs mere
