This was actually to be a tender port. Due to a storm, we were not able to tender and had an additional sea day instead. We heard that the port of Wellington was also closed that day.

With the pics recently posted by KiwiCruiser and this report from LAexNY, it has become apparent how blessed we were weather-wise on the previous NZ & AUST cruise (Regatta), which left Auckland Feb 5th.

 

The weather varied from splendid to OK, and the seas were calm. Although we passed through a few misty areas in the beautiful, but notoriously cloudy, rainy Milford Sound; that particular day it was a glorious, unforgettable passage. We were able to disembark at all scheduled ports.

 

New Zealand stole our hearts in so many ways.
