MSC Musica has just left aprox 15 minutes late. Lots of single blasts of the horn prior to departure. We will be off in 30 minutes too. Sent from my BlackBerry® wireless device

After seeing all the queues back to the ship we elected to stay on the bus and return to the port. Having just had lunch it is time to catch a few more rays! The weather is as they say “glorious” Sent from my BlackBerry® wireless device

Stop 6 on blue route Sent from my BlackBerry® wireless device

After a little stroll down to the cruise terminal two of us have decided to go on the HoHo bus around Piraeus. The blue tour which passes the terminal costs €22 and passes the Acropolis on its way. To see Athens as well you would need to change to the red route. The 2 tours overlap at 2 stops and are both included in the same ticket price. The photo shows how close the stop is to the ship.
