Heading back to Melbourne with days at sea

Hey there for the last time on this trip.....Sea days again and at least we saw another ship 

Container ship 

Full moon 

Land ahoy 

We came so close but then sailed on 

Goodbye land lol 

But again could see again once we had sailed around 

Yep getting closer again 

But night fell and we went to bed and this is what we saw in our Port in Melbourne 

A lovely day greeted us 

Woody checking the Spirit of Tassie  which is small compared to this ship.....it takes all types of things and people to Tassie every day 

Last coffee on board Golden Princess 

We went back to our city pad and went to the zoo.....we were getting 2 yearly zoo passes as a gift and while there thought lets visit some animals......typical back of a gorilla 

There a blue wren in there too 

And the following day we needed to take our car for a drive to recharge the battery so......off to another zoo.....this time Werribee open plains zoo and you get driven around part in an open bus 

Hippos

Ostriches came to greet us 

And the Giraffes were so close 

Zebra which crossed in from of the bus so the driver said "stopping at zebra crossing"

Rhinos 

Male Ostrich 

Many lions too 

They were getting ready for a big Halloween weekend early....we had a nice time and have since caught up with my Rex and his Jason, my Sarah and Sebastian, and Brenton.

All enjoying lunch, tea, lunch out with us

Before we left the city I noticed this interesting looking bird 

Don't know what it is but looks neat.......

We then visited Ray, Lauren, April and Cooper no pics of anyone this time and are back home.

Well we have been back home for days and me doing 7 posts time has gone.....when you read this it will be Sunday 4th November....but I am typing this on 31st October Halloween xoxoxoxoxo

Be back again sometime xo

Sydney fun then Goodbye with cruise on Golden Princess

Oh yes me again and only one more post to go lol

We caught a train just so we could go over the harbour bridge 

Travelling along and you can just see the Opera House 

Going under those huge metal spans 

We got off at the first station stop and took a walk for more snaps 

And walked to Luna Park more info here

The bridge the opera house and another ship was in......

Such a great place and free to have a walk around 

Instead of climbing back up the hill to the station we decided on ferry......

We had a transport card from when my Rex lived here so you just swipe on and off all types of transport 

Going under the bridge 

Looking back as we zoom to the pier 

Later we had a walk near the botanical gardens and saw this official car leaving Government house and wondered is that Harry and Meghan  

Wonderful fountain for sure 

There were gargoyles up on that middle building 

Little zoom 

Ibis drinking from the fountain.....most call them bin chickens lol 

Queen Victoria on this building 

In the morning we noticed our next ship was in but were not boarding till 2.30 

We had a walk up a very big hill to here and could just see the bridge through this huge tree 

Next ship Golden Princess 

Took a walk to the other side of the harbour to snap 

On board we went and this is taken from our balcony 

Chairs and table 

The room 

And this one even had a bath 

Looking back from the door 

Ready to sail away 

Last walk around before Muster 

Ship starting moving out 

Helped by tug and pilot 

2 videos as we leave Sydney....it was a lot of fun and tomorrow back with last post of trip xoxoxo
