Maybe she is doing a test run in open sea?

This site is tracking her also:

The other tracking site doesn't show any movement yet:

edit: Oops! I forgot the first site is actually a booking site. So, not allowed on here. It does show the Millennium well out in open sea.

Sydney AIS has her tracked at 21 knots.

Well, according to.......http://www.marinetraffic.com/ais/# the Millennium is moored at a passenger dock in Sydney, Australia. It looks like she is ready for the next cruise.

 

For the last few days, the Millie has been anchored at sea about 30 nautical miles NNE of the Sydney inlet. She started her leisurely sail to the terminal about 7:00 AM EDT and arrived at the dock about 1:00 PM EDT. I assume there are rules about maritime navigation (don't hit any submerged rocks ;)) since the ship sailed away from shore and then made two 90 degree turns to the right (starboard) to get back to the dock.

I'm currently in a hotel in Sydney looking at this moment at Millennium docked at the Overseas Passenger Terminal next to the Harbour Bridge at Circular Quay. She arrived in the early hours of this morning (currently 9.45am Friday 27th here) after Seven Seas Mariner departed the dock at 11.00pm last night. So it all looks normal and happy cruise to those leaving in 2 days time.

 

Eagle eyes will be able to see her funnel in this webcam pic.
