Cruise: Cartagena, Spain

After breakfast, we strolled into Cartagena. We mostly just wandered around, but we did look at the local castle and a Roman theater. We also inadvertently attended a labor day rally. We didn't stay long, since we weren't sure about the local politics and didn't want to get swept along if tear gas and paddy wagons became part of the festivities. We had lunch on the boat at sailing time and started packing for tomorrow's permanent shore leave.
