Pacific Jewel in Noumea inplace of Emerald Bay

I was thinking the same thing. I didn't think that looked like Emerald Bay.

 

On our Pacific Dawn NYE cruise we stopped at Noumea for pipe repairs instead of Isle Of Pines.

 

Hope they are not having similar problems.

We've been reading a blog of the cruise and it's said that due to rough weather around the northern end of New Caledonia, remnants of the cyclones, the Captain, Commodore Steve Burgoine, decided to alter the iteninerary to Noumea -> Isle of Pines -> Emerald Bay -> Sydney to allow the sea conditions around Emerald Bay to improve.

 

Commodore Burgoine is relieving Captain Paolettii who had headed home to Italy for a break, and to check up on his beloved Alpha Romeo Spider. He was telliing us that he was excited that the Commodore of the P&O Cruises UK fleet was going to be relieving him while he was away.
