Marlene shopping in Roseau, Conquest <\/em>in the background<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

We started the day with breakfast, then went ashore. We have been to Dominica before<\/a>, in 2024 on our first Conquest <\/em>cruise, but neither of us recalled what we did on that visit. I guess the place isn’t that memorable. However, I think it has some interesting sights and we considered doing an excursion as we were approached by several guys who offered a 2-hour tour for $20. But neither of us had any recollection of the city so we just wandered around town for a couple of hours.<\/p>\n\n\n

Mostly the time was spent shopping and buying little – just some magnets, a coffee cup and a local beer. But we also tried to visit a church, only to find that it had been closed for years due to hurricane damage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We had dinner then played cards (Marlene 2, me 0). The sunset as we left was very nice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The casino was kind as I won $160.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
