they even use the lifeboats as roundabouts in the car park....

The water in my in ground pool was sloshing around back and forth like the ship pools in a slight swell .....  and I am 15 km from the ocean so there is that ..

This may very well be the first time we see the entertainers getting around the ship on mobility scooters!!!   ......... just joking  😄

37 nighter from Southampton to Singapore via the Med, Suez Canal and UAE .......

We have one of those electronic photo frames that cycles though images kinda like a powerpoint presentation.  I have loaded heaps of our cruise and holiday pictures onto a SD card such that we have a non-stop random picture show 24/7.

Often times we will be watching TV one of us will comment on the picture in the frame ..... while they are not hard copies, at least we get to see them and they are not stuck in a box gathering dust

Edited to say, I have mounted it on the wall in our lounge room so all can see it

I don't understand what you are complaining about?/ You do realise that you are dealing with the Commonwealth Public Service ??? 🙂

Actually Aus Post staff are not APS ....... they are a whole different level of unaccountable lethargy

I agree, however before Sydney Ports cruise schedule was taken off the web, I did notice that Pacific Adventure had a few departures from there. Not sure how it would fit under the Harbour Bridge.

I have been out of the loop lately, is there still a push to lower the water level in the Harbour?

We had the "Pirates" tour booked for our cruise in November 2019.

Unfortunately I was unwell on the day and could not join the tour.

My wife went on her own and had a great time.

They went to some off the beaten track places and as well as the major tourist attractions however the company gave them a choice of what t do.

Would book again.

found this one .... anudder place and time

Will not be flying QANTAS any time thanks....

 

just made a minor edit to your post to align it with my thoughts

4 workers at my local hospital emergency department have tested positive to coronavirus.

Guess I had better double my praying and hand washing efforts.

I saved money on haircuts by smashing the mirrors ........

Cant see it, don't care ........

But I think I will give it a pass now and anyway my husband wouldn't let me book it as he was worried about the amount of smoking onboard.

just walking around Italy was bad enough, I can only imagine what it would be like onboard

as they say in racing parlance .......... prefer others

Bit of an update. Staff are saying they are going to Singapore for drydock, but no passengers on board. 

 

OK .... so I expect to hear the full low down on this including salacious gossip during the car ride to the airport.

Dig girl, dig!!!

Wandered up to the Hollywood pool and had a spa then sat on big chairs and read with a huge ocean view.
 

No doubt you enjoyed a few of the Death Adder coffee's on them big chairs

ooops .... and there you go .....

Nope - you seem to be a permanent shore attraction in Circular Quay

I notice you guys are arriving into Melbourne on Sunday at 0800, rather later than the usual 0630 ish arrival.

Had to notice as I am playing chauffeur   😎

Is this arrival time due to .......

• it not being a turnaround day

• the tides

• the number of celebrity CC guests on board

Any other wild guesses ..........

6pm news stated the crew members were from the USA and the plane was from Canada. It is such a dangerous job to do.  The company which owns the aircraft has grounded three others to check them to make sure it was not a mechanical issue.

 

Condolences to the crew's family.

I know those guys ...... it is tragic!

The community is so small and tight knit, lots of people are hurting

I am sick to my stomach

That’s bad timing. Looks like we won’t get to see any shows. 

you wont get any sympathy from me - I tend to avoid the shows with a passion

on the bright side at least I don't get accused of people holding a seat for me  😁
