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

Days at sea, than New Zealand and then Hello Sydney

Hello again, these daily posts are sure fun lol
Yes back at sea and heading to Auckland, Bay of Islands and Sydney 






A couple sea videos for you


We arrived at Auckland and the day was mild 

Looking from our balcony 

Now we have been to Auckland heaps so just did a bit of walking around and Paul spoke to one of our friends but unable to catch up in person......

Tug boats came back to assist us leaving Auckland 

We arranged to have a meal in one of the restaurants and we had the back window views  

Sailing away and the pilot alongside 

Next morning we were at Bay of Islands and we stayed on boards as we were here in March so no need this time....and look at the big crack in the window lol

So a little tour of one of the decks....14

Statue....and this is the area we played Trivia most afternoons 

Tenders were busy taking some to and from 

Nice to have a day to relax with less people on board 

And another book I read 


So cute 

Then off again and this time Sydney 

The Harbour bridge 

Coming in to dock 

The Opera house and Prince Harry was going to be there later 

Beautiful Day and Luna Park is under the bridge to the right

We did plenty of walking looking at local markets 


And looked down to our ship which would be leaving later

A little kitchen

Our ship sounded the horn and started moving out 



Goodbye Celebrity Solstice
