Change of Plans - Now at Kiel

There was a change of plans for the ship due to strong winds in the German Bight which would have made our transit through the Kiel Canal a little difficult, so instead of Bremen on the other side, we are moored in Kiel for two nights. Tomorrow is a Public Holiday!

Today we went to look at the Ship Museum which had an interesting Exhibition on 1918, when the Socialist Revolution came to Germany, starting on the Naval Boats at Kiel.

We then wandered into the City (about 300m away!) to do a spot of shopping.
