  1. No I don't. I rang Carnival and she said do it now and take a photo of the test. So I did. Yay. Ready to go.
  2. Packed and ready for tomorrow. Thanks for the advice about the RAT test. Will have to do it tomorrow. Bother. Kay
  3. Australia is at the end of the earth. We always have those long flights and still front up for more. At least I won't have my hideous flight till the end of my holiday. I checked instructions and we need to have our RAT test for Covid within 3 days of boarding.. See you real soon. Kay
  4. That must be awful for you. But if you don't succeed, try try again. Kay
  5. How about we all put up our photos so we can recognise each other?. It has been helpful on previous cruises. Kay
  6. And no walking up the stairs because they close the lifts? Hooray. Kay
  7. I was told that Muster is done electronically ? Is that true? Kay
  8. Halleluja. I am checked in. It only took all day. the check in page has us arriving on 5 May and refuses to change. I was advised to skip that part and was finally finished. Rather wobbly website? I chatted to a fellow from Philippines but he couldn't help. Very frustrating experience. See you on board. Kay
  9. Join the club. There are a few of us solos. I thought I could check in today 30 March but it's been put back a day. Perhaps it's US date? Kay
  10. more learning to be done. I love learning new things. Maybe that's why I travel. I had to translate for my husband; his Australian accent was so strong nobody could understand him. I also remember translating for some Chinese girls in France, and an English woman in Italy. Her efforts required her to yell louder if they didn't understand. Kay
  11. They talk about British English, American English and Indian English but we don't get a mention. Thanks for that information. All Greek to me. Kay So does CA stand for Canada or California?
  12. They went totally out of fashion after our then Prime Minister Tony Abbott wore them. These days the blokes wear very well covering board shorts
  13. What is a wife beater? Yes thongs is our name for your flipflops. Your Speedos are called Budgie Smugglers here. Do you know our little Budgerigars [birds] Very popular cage birds, commonly known as budgies. Do you get the picture? the mind boggles. Kay
  14. The only port I have not been to is Moorea. I reckon you will be spoilt for choice with tour totes at each port. I'm not booking anything. You know we all walk upside down south of the equator. Kay
  15. Jetstar is the El Cheapo of Qantas. I missed a domestic flight with them by five minutes. No dice. Then their flight next day was delayed and I missed my connection. Too bad so sad. I did a 3.5 month trip once. That was a challenge. This time I'm away 8 weeks. At least I only fly one way[home]Kay
  16. Travel light. I never have more than 13 kilos. I f I can't carry it, it doesn't come. It will be Autumn, the best time of the year. We have just had a heat wave. the sea is warm and lovely. We will be long gone before Australia cools off. Aussies don't dress up much. Take it easy. Kay
  17. losing someone you love is always hard. My sister is not dying; she has dementia so is dying by degrees. It's horrid. Live while we can and do as much as we can. Blessings, Kay
  18. The train is not glamorous, but does cater to your basic needs, toilets and dining car, and the scenery is gorgeous. the bus is just the last little bit of the trip. Also swim at Bondi Beach [water is 24degrees Celsius now] and take the train to Blue Mountains just out of Sydney. See the Opera House and ride the ferries around Sydney Harbour. If you get a day pass you can do all that.
  19. I'm having a battle with reply to Blessed. Why not take the train from Sydney to Brisbane? You could probably stop off at towns along the way. It would be a way of taking more luggage too. Good luck. Kay
  20. Our first Sunday is in Noumea. I am planning to attend Mass at Notre Dame du Pacifique if I can find out what time that is. I'm not Catholic but have found it to be the best way to look at a cathedral [ and hear the singing] Kay
  21. I just found my cabin 4232. So i'm port , you are starboard.
  22. Lucky you. I've been told I have to wait till 30 March. Maybe i'll be sharing with the crew! Kay
