Day 1 16th December 2024 Toowoomba to Sydney

 Packed up ready for new adventure. Charlotte kindly agreed to baby sit our house. The country side around airport, very green and full of life. Lots of rain in the last couple of months. Passing through security was the most involved ever, but still better than a major airport.

A couple of days in Sydney before we cruise over New Zealand again, very exciting. 


The flight was quick in Dash8-400, and before we knew it we had landed in Sydney. We had quick video call with Jaqueline to see her open her Christmas presents. A quick uber to our hotel: The Sofitel Wentworth, grand and classy hotel 10 minutes from Circular Quay. Our room was 1734, top floor of the hotel.

After checking into our room, we were invited to French evening supper, of Roast Pork with cold meats and salads served with white wine and other drinks. No need for dinner after this “light” supper. We decided to visit Circular Quay, to where our ship will be in two days time. A pleasant walk, and we got to see the ship, Queen Elizabeth leave harbour. Very pleasant.
