After a lovely breakfast, we headed down early to the cruise terminal. It took less than 40 minutes to board the ship, and was very smoothly done by the cruise company/port authority. We were aboard ship before our scheduled check in. An added bonus, our room was ready.

We found our muster station, checked our bookings for the speciality restaurants and headed off to lunch in one of the main dining rooms. The food was superb, and better than our experience on the Grand Princess from 2 months ago.
We did a quick reconnaissance of the ship, certainly much to like. The passengers are a mixed bunch with us being the
upper age group of average on board. Many children and younger adults, which fits, since it the school holiday period and a New Year’s cruise to NZ.
The harbour is truly magnificent. The ship left dock about 4pm local time and sounded its horn to the tune of “love boat”. Boats of all sizes and makes made their way across the harbour, with many boat goers waving to the departing cruise ship.
