Yo....The Sea Princess will be in Briz Vegas on Saturday (20th Oct) same day as Sun Princess who is returning from her Asian voyage.

Unfortunately (for her passengers) the Sea Princess will be docking at the "wonderful" Grain wharf at Fisherman's Island. At least they will have another 30 odd days to get over that embarrassing experience.:o

cheers

Bon Voyage.

Bon Voyage.

Hopefully she will make it in to Fiordland National Park this time around!!

we embarked the Sea Princess today and staggered boarding was supposed to be on with a starting time of 2pm but would you believe we checked in at 12 noon and we were sitting in the Horizon Court having lunch at 12.15pm.....boarding was so quick and easy

RKMW enjoy your cruise it sounds wonderful:)

Docked in Brisbane at Fisherman's Island....

Sun Princess is also in Brisbane,

but had to travel way up the river to dock at Port-side.....

Isn't Brisbane lucky having 2 modern cruise terminals to choose from.:D:D

we docked at the Grain Terminal today and it was a nice fine day

Princess put on a free shuttle to Brisbane but i dont know if it was done because of the swapping of ports or not

when we came back and going up in the lifts a few people were complaning about not being told in the switch of ports as they were not informed by their TA's

They are tendering ashore to Port Douglas today...

yes David we are in Port Douglas today and its going to be a warm day....a top of 30c and humid

we have had nice warm days and flat seas

Send some of that 30c down this way:D:D

Have a great day in Port Douglas. Looks like a long way to tender ashore.

They arrive in Darwin today 9am local time.

Have a nice day.

Hi Bob and Kay. Hope you have a great day in Darwin. We're yet to cruise there. Enjoy :)

hi Anne & Allan

we are in Darwin now and its a hot and humid 35 plus degrees and we are having a good cruise, we have been blessed with great weather and smooth seas

the city put on a shuttle bus for us $8 one way or $14 return and its only a 5 minute bus ride....to walk into town its takes approx 15 mins....we caught the bus to town as its too hot and a taxi back for $8

They have a couple of sea days as they make their way to Lombok.

Its just next door to Bali...:D

Is anyone doing a ¨live from¨ or blog for this cruise?

Sandy in Spain

They have just arrived in Lombok as the sun is rising on another lovely day....

Lombok.

Anyone been there?

Is there much to see?...

Is it just the the same , or different from Bali ?

This was the cruise I really wanted to do but alas it didn't fit in with other things - maybe next time.

Hi David. I've been about as close as the view you see on the cruise cam LOL. We were there on Pacific Sun in 2010 but I unfortunately had a migraine so stayed aboard. I know it was a long tender ride to the jetty. A lot of people went on a tour to Gilly islands from there - apparently awesome beaches & snorkelling. Very unspoilt - not as commercialised as Bali.
