Portofino? Nearly.

We were anchored close to Portofino but alas the swell from the south was too strong (allegedly) to risk the tender operation. So near and yet so far again! So another sea day, but not quite as static as yesterday, as we cruised away south at 2knots towards La Spezia.

The shops and casino opened and we booked a nice lunch in La Grande Bistro with a window table to watch the Ligurian coast drift by very slowly.

The big musical show was a bit underwhelming, dinner in Normandie again with interesting  French Canadians on next table.  Prawns, marmite, duck. Duke Ellington tribute band  in cocktail lounge.
