Bit crowded today????? :D Actually, it would be great. I haven't yet looked to see if we will meet up with any other ships on our cruise, but it is on the cards.

Kiwi_cruiser Posted February 2, 2011 Author #8 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Bit crowded today????? :D . heh :D yeath, but a good thing is the sounds are big enough for them, I wonder how many times they see each other! :) Actually, it would be great. I haven't yet looked to see if we will meet up with any other ships on our cruise, but it is on the cards. I hate to be the bearer of bad news but According to http://www.cruisenewzealand.org.nz/schedule.aspx all the cruise ships going around NZ when you going around are a Port ahead of you!, but you may pass one or two in the night. According to http://www.cruisenewzealand.org.nz/schedule.aspx the only time another ship is with you is when you’re in Fiordland and you should have Saga Ruby in there somewhere.

Ah well, don't think we'll catch those - unless it's before midnight. As long as we can get into the fiords, I'll be happy. :) According to http://www.cruisenewzealand.org.nz/schedule.aspx the only time another ship is with you is when you’re in Fiordland and you should have Saga Ruby in there somewhere. Oh hope we do see her. Looks a nice little classic style ship. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sandielle Posted February 4, 2011 #24 Share Posted February 4, 2011 I don't think they have had as much rain as we have had up North!! Hmm, like last year. I remember last year Akaroa was green, but it was very dry inland from Dunedin and the Taieri Gorge train tour was cancelled because of damage from fires. Hope they get some rain soon - we'll send them some, :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwi_cruiser Posted February 4, 2011 Author #25 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Hope they get some rain soon - we'll send them some, :cool: Make sure you aim it for the South Island and NOT the top of the North island! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
