So excited to see the ship I'm going on in Feb to Nz

That's worth getting up for, thanks for posting!

 

(I'll be enjoying the spectacle from the other side of the curtains, what a great welcome home! :D)

[Fish66]

[Fish66]

Hmmm...not sure I'll get there that early, was going to head down there on my lunch break though. It'll be great to see her.

You will live this ship. Wish we were staying on!

That would be great to live on the ship, especially if it was doing a world cruise, then at least for a few years anyway.:D

Straight from the Bureau of Meteorology:

"Min 13 Max 27

A sunny morning. Cloud increasing in the afternoon with the slight (20%) chance of a shower during the evening. Light winds becoming south to southeasterly 15 to 25 km/h in the early afternoon then tending east to southeasterly 15 to 20 km/h in the late evening."

 

Sounds like Melbourne will be putting on the perfect morning for Golden's arrival. :)

Ill see how comfy my bed is at 5am [emoji38][emoji38]

Yeah me too. But a tough ask though. And I live a long way away.

I suspect it may be some curious residents on balconies, a news crew and a handful of extras that may be the only ones to see this crazy curtain opening...

[emzz_02]

I'm a fair way away too but only straight down the ring road to the city so wouldn't be too bad at that time of the morning and with my work I'm used to getting up at 5am!!

Hmmm yes let's see how it goes at 5

[Esilef]

Sailing in now. It's 5:38am and a beautiful morning to welcome the golden to melbourne.

[emzz_02]

I managed to drag my butt out of bed to see you all arrive. It's an absolutely beautiful morning here. Currently watching the spirit pull in and can see you coming out of the darkness behind it :)

[Kiwi Kruzer]

You can watch it live on this cam from The Port of Melbourne.
