nice.

I think the Golden Princess is stranded here with nowhere to go. New Zealand won't let them tender passengers ashore and now Australia have banned all cruise ships. And there is now the suggestion that there are cases of coronavirus on board!!! 

 

Where to now? Back to home port Melbourne and hope they are allowed to disembark? Common sense would say yes!

I should add if Coronavirus is on board, once all have been tested and they will then have to self isolate for 14 days.

Monday morning....

Marine traffic shows her just below  Dunedin and the route forecast shows her rounding the bottom of the South Island  and then heading in a straight line back to  Melbourne ..

Good news then.

Ditto. As a Princess tragic, I really didn't want to see another of their ships in the news for the wrong reasons.

We canceled that cruise with FCC as soon as it was allowed.  So glad we didn't go.
