Lirio

Last week in NZ. Next friday go back home. We visited a light house and a beach nearby Auckland yesterday. Today in town, Silverser Shadow.

Unfortunately I cant go on August. I have a conference on New Orleans that finishes on Oct., 3. So early october is the best date.

Seabourn has a cruise with stop there, but my preference is Silversea.

We are looking for 2023 cruise and one option would be New York to Quebec early october with the following ports: Boston, New Port, Portland, Halifax, Charlottetown, Saguenay, Quebec. We would stay 2-3 days in Quebec and drive to Montreal for another couple of days. Any comments? I would love to visit L'Anse aux Meadows. Is it a must see in thos area?

These sits with air condition, im my view, if one can afford, is the best option.

I am not on a cruise. The International Antarctic Center is very close to the Christchurch airport. It is a mixture of a amusiment park and a cientific museum. Great for children of all ages, including me (59).... Back to Auckland already. Unfortunately my new hotel room does not have a view to the port, but I guess there is a SS ship here today. Are you @zqtchas?

Today I visited the International Antarctic Center in Christchurh where I had the opportunity to go on a ride in a Hagglund, had an encounter with huskies, went to a simulator of an Antarctic Storm where the temperature goes as down as -18C (the lower temperature I have ever felt) attended some presentations and 4D movies as well a virtual reality (VR) about Shackleton journey. It was great. At every moment it remminds mr about the great Antarctica cruise on board Silver Explorer.

a hiking to a cave nearby Christchurch.....

From my balcony this morning.......

From Rio de Janeiro........

My hotel is a pre cruise hotel for Norwegian. Fully booked today. last night there were 2 ships in town. Queen Elizabeth and a second big one that I dont know.

Happy New Year. 20 years now we came first time to New Zealand an we fell in love....

In our cruise in August 2022 a pen drive were given free of charge. short and only the environment. No guests images.

in what cruise line you will do the Nile River? I am looking for our next cruise to celebrate my 60 b-day in 2023. So far I couldnd decide, so many options. Nile is a good choice.

From my balcony in Auckland. I have no idea which cruise is that.....

Flying to New Zealand today.

Thanks. I never "saw" such temperature in my entire life. Not even when I went to Antarctica. Have a great holiday!

I have no words for this temperature!

Almost the same here in Rio de Janeiro....

Argentina! what a great game. And congratulations also to France.

Get better soon!

We are looking for 2023 cruise and I found a cruise starting at Rio de Janeiro. It must be interesting to start a cruise at your home town. I am not convinced yet, and will keep brownsing. There are some many good options everywhere around the world.....

Xmas flying from Rio to Auckland. I will fly on Dec. 25 and will arrive on Dec. 27 and have a whole month with the daughter. Back to Rio on Jan. 27. We are looking for what to do for carnival when we have 5 days holiday....(carnival is in last week of Feb.).

Enjoying the weekend watching the world cup games. I think it would be very interesting to be in a cruise with a lot of sea days during the games.......
