Anyone on the open decks is rounded up, and directed inside, then they block access. They will usually announce at least one side of the ship to stay off their balconies for safety reasons. Not every day a ship heads in towards Rockhampton. Do you have a good view of land? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Post cruise is probably too many eggs benedict. The test works too. The first time I had it long ago, there had been a box of matches in my jacket packet the week before - the jacket scored special attention.

Don’t trust my innocent look obviously lol Having had experiences with various drug couriers @ Sydney Airport, I can assure you I have encountered several drug carrying grannies, lol. Innocent looking, albeit crooks. They normally got around 5 to 7 years in the Big House out Silverwater. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always think that's why I get targeted - because I look so innocent, especially when I was travelling with my three small children 🤣🤣😂 - well before I was a grandma. Just this week coming back from NZ, got 'patted down' by a female security guard. I think now I have a bit more 'natural padding' I look even dodgier! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare OzKiwiJJ Posted September 30, 2022 Author #565 Share Posted September 30, 2022 We've finally reached warm weather. We're currently anchored off Airlie Beach and it's a glorious warm, sunny day. We didn't go ashore today, just had a relaxed morning and are now in the Sanctuary for the afternoon. I'm not sure if we'll risk the pool though, it might be still a tad too cold. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We left a bag of laundry to be done on our bed last night. The clean laundry came back around 5:30pm today. Try on a world cruise it can take 3 to 4 days, with all the Elites on board. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
