Well, in 6 weeks we will be on the Pacific Pearl and I am sure we will love it.:D We are always just glad to be 'on' the ship but have found that it is mostly the crew who make your cruise enjoyable. Hopefully we will love the Pac Pearl so much we will book a longer cruise on her, 4 days will be so short but better than none.;)

Roll, roll, roll, that's the best way and yes, pack as late as possible and hang up as soon as possible. I've only ever had to iron a couple of things mostly for formal night.

We were dropped off outside OPT right near where you book your bags in. They had a place where you could leave your bags. They were busy loading the crews luggage but told us just to leave them nearby and they would be loaded next. We were a bit worried they seemed to just be out in the open but we got them ok anyway. We got there pretty early like 9 ish. People were still disembarking but they collect their luggage 'upstairs' so it wasn't crowded. We live in Lake Macquarie but we get the train down so don't have to worry about carparking plus I love train travel so it makes the holiday start earlier and finish later.

Well done Jenny, you covered everything. Be good if it was a sticky!!
