We are underway. Not sure what time we left.

I am currently on the Pacific Princess. Still at the dock as of 10:30 pm with no word on when we will be departing. Power went out around 4:30 just after the muster drill and right before sail away. While finshing up dinner of salad and sandwiches (while wishing I was in MDR polishing off a slice of prime rib) the power came back on around 8:30. During the captain's last announcement of the evening, he said there would be a letter delivered in the morning concerning compensation.

I was on board a few weeks ago for the TA. They had the Crab Shack, but no fondue.

We were in New Zealand a year ago and toured Rotorua with Jim Archer. I highly recommend him as well. Another tour that we went on out of Auckland was a wine tour of the Matakana region with NZ WinePro (http://www.nzwinepro.co.nz). John is the owner and has a great itinerary that takes you to a number of vineyards and a few other interesting stops. It was a great day, saw some amazing scenery, and never felt rushed.
