I was thinking about it this morning and even though I agree it's time for P&O Australia to move on from Pacific Sun, it's actually quite sad. Yes, she's had problems (what ship doesn't?) and she's getting quite old (there's still older ships out there), some great times were had by a lot of people on board that ship. :(

 

Look at me, getting emotional over the old gal. :o

 

I may need to start thinking about what ship P&O could replace her with to help make myself feel better... ;) Sun Princess? Costa Victoria? Oceana? :D

I'm flying over Friday to join her in Auckland for her last run down the East Coast. The weather looks supurb on the radar. Will try to get some photos.

Didn't P&O originally say that they were going to replace the cameras on the ships, to keep them at the same speed as the rest of the fleet (Dawn, Sun)
