Bon Voyage to all who are lucky enough to have an Easter Cruise. ... and take care on the road to those who are travelling away for this long Easter and Anzac Day break.

I think she is still with us. Celebrated her 100th a few years ago. I remember , as a very small child of course , seeing her on the Auckland Town Hall stage appearing in a concert with Eddie Calvert.

On on her last day down under GoldenPrriness bathed in Golden light....from the late afternoon sun .

When they ran them last time they were so popular that they chartered planes for fly/cruise , that were all business class .

I guess its a bit like Portside in Brissy, It was the cruise terminal until the Hilton and the property developers "enhanced" the area. The Hilton had to agree to their conference facilities being used as a terminal until Queens was redeveloped. Now Princes is used as an additional berth and I have noted that some ships seem to prefer it due to their egress and docking requirements...eg Solstice only seems to dock at Princes.

Yes ..Princes Wharf --- (we dont have a Princess Wharf) - has the Hilton and also the Apartments where owners have to hold on to any glassware on their shelves when a ship berths due to the vibrations.😄

Queens Wharf is the official cruise terminal .

Great news. We did that cruise when both Tahitian and Pacific Princess were homeported there and Princess took them over from Renaissance Cruises when they went bust .. They were built enjoy all that Tahiti has to offer . The only hassle will be the flights as they are invariably in the middle of the night and depending on the cruise dates , overnights will be required . Dont expect any cheap deals ...Paradise comes at a cost .

Not all ships have a dry dock....Heres Caribbean in Wet Dock

Bon Voyage . Enjoy those lovely sea days. Trust this god weather follows you across the Pacific.

Me thinks you is in for a surprise Uncle Les......

Tis indeed - a grand autumnal day ...
