We landed up not doing this tour...instead we did a morning walk around the small town of Greenock!  By noon my knees had had it, so I headed back to the ship for some r&r while Robert continued his exploration. Which included a few pubs!!  I spent the afternoon on the deck with my book and watched a few concerts on the big screen - EL0, Lady Antebellum, and Crowded House.

We joined our dinner mates for a very yummy supper- we had missed a few dinners due to ports. We had a little catch up..the scallops were amazing!!!

Back to our room and we watched Lara Croft Tomb Raider...

Happy birthday Dad, hope it was a great day!!
