After our bus tour we had one more outing...a taxi ride to Stokes Hill Wharf to board our dinner cruise boat.
This wharf area has had lots of regeneration done and is a very popular eateries precinct.
There were great views looking back towards the city...
If you are adventurous, there is a driverless bus which takes passengers between Stokes Hill Wharf and the Waterfront Eateries Precinct. ( another amazing place!)
How cute is this thing! 😉
I found a news report on this vehicle which explains a bit about the technology involved in how it works. Driverless Vehicle
There were a few craft moored there...
This one was 'ours'...
The dining area was spacious...and the tables had starched white cloths...
The commentary was very interesting. Darwin Harbour is 5 times the size of Sydney Harbour and has a 'catchment area' of 450 square kilometres! Source
The large white building on the right is Parliament House...
Framed within the window on the left in the next photo, is Government House on the right with Parliament House on the left...
Government House is a beautiful looking building but unfortunately, neither DH or I were successful in getting a clear photo...
Pretty soon the light had faded and it was time for the dinner buffet, which was delicious.
It was a very pleasant and relaxing evening. When night fell, the city lights made a lovely backdrop...
And for the last hour of the cruise we moved out to the fore deck where the weather was balmy and the company great!
After the cruise docked it was a short taxi ride back to our hotel, where bed was very welcome after our busy day!

That looks fun and relaxing and a delicious meal to end the day. I think shrimp are smaller in South Carolina. The ones that are labeled 'jumbo' are half the size of the one on your plate. We buy the smaller ones as they have a nicer texture and more taste than the jumbo ones, just our preference.
So were you adventurous enough to have a ride on the driverless bus?
What a wonderful day xx
Awesome photos looks like you had a ball❤️❤️❤️❤️
It looks like you had a lovely cruise with just the perfect weather. The buffet looked absolutely scrumptious.
God bless.
