Could be a bit bouncy for them today? I think the most important thing to be on these long cruises is Flexible... The likely hood of something going wrong on a 100 day cruise as oppose to a 14 day cruise is pretty high... More chance of missing ports, engine problems, specific foods running out before the next top up.... You have be prepared to say oh well and move on as there is so much more to enjoy and if you want to let the little things get to you then you could very well ruin your whole trip... Midway through a long cruise people do start to get tired ( especially during the really port intensive periods ) and cranky and the littlest of things can set them off... Thankfully the cruise home through the pacific is more relaxing and sun filled ( you hope LOL ) and then suddenly it is over and you can't wait to get back on.... :cool::p:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

c7009 Posted August 30, 2015 #543 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Well they have Auckland and then the home run. They had a formal farwell dinner in honour of their their NZ departees last evening. And from all report it was served hot (;)) thought to be fair my mother has allergies/ intolerances and so gets a special menu. She cannot fault the kitchen, waiters or food. Apparently they are extremely attentive and cautious. Apparently the swell is ramping up too :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwi Kruzer Posted August 30, 2015 Author #544 Share Posted August 30, 2015 They emerged from a very foggy harbour and docked in Auckland. Its a wet day for them. http://www.queens-wharf.co.nz/queens-wharf/gallery/webcam/?redirect=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NSWP Posted August 31, 2015 #548 Share Posted August 31, 2015 A low pressure system coming over NZ, gale force winds and rough seas a possibility. A nice rock and roll ride to Sydney to finish their World Cruise. Will be interesting to check Bridgecam this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I forgot to add, it was in September 2007 we got the 12 metre seas off NZ, enroute LA-Sydney on Regal Princess's last cruise before she became Pacific Dawn. I hope Sea Princess does not cop seas like that, scary. Edited August 31, 2015 by NSWP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
