Now for something completely different
OzKiwiJJ replied to Blackduck59's topic in Australia & New Zealand Cruisers
No, they are all locals. -
Definitely, plus the spread is exponential so what may have been just a couple of cases at the start of the cruise has snowballed out to bigger numbers. Hopefully we're past the peak and the mandatory RATs before going ashore in Fremantle and Busselton may have caught a few people who didn't realise they had caught it.

The noisy group was far more subdued last night although they still took over half the seats in the bar. -

Not visible if there are. -
5 Night with Plus Beverage Package included.

That's correct if you just want to have the upgraded drinks package without the other Premier features. If you want the 4 device internet package, two speciality dinners and photo package as well then it costs an extra $35pp per day. -
Actually it isn't originally American at all, it's European. An ancient Celtic tradition, taken over by Christians, and honours the dead on All Hallows Eve. Americans just commercialised it.

Which cruise line for Japan
OzKiwiJJ replied to subaru94's topic in Australia & New Zealand Cruisers
Years ago we did a wonderful tour from Tokyo to Kyoto. It went to Mt Fuji, Hakone, Takayama, the Shirakiwago region, and Kanazawa. Some of the travel was by bus, and some was by train. I booked it through a Japanese travel agency, Sunrise Tours. -

I've just discovered that the older demographic "partiers" can be almost as bad! A large group has taken over our favourite small bar on Coral Princess. Around 10-12 people who spread out right across the bar. The men shout at each other from one end of their group to the other, and the women are constantly shrieking with laughter. I think we're going to have to find somewhere else for our pre and post dinner drinks. My ears hurt! -
What ports might you miss in NZ?
OzKiwiJJ replied to RobinBancs's topic in Australia & New Zealand Cruisers
At this time of the year there are still storms passing across the south of the South Island. You should be OK in January though. -
I woke up just after midnight hearing a loud banging noise. The bit that opens between our balcony and the next had come open and was banging against their deck furniture. We managed to push the furniture away from it far enough to stop the noise. I don't think the people in that cabin even heard it. Our steward has secured it again so hopefully it will stay put from now on.
