PerthSkyCruiser Posted February 16, 2006 #1 Share Posted February 16, 2006 This afternoon we went to see the Pacific Sky docked in Fremantle harbour just before it left for Singapore. The atmosphere was very festive, with excited passengers lining the decks, some already with drinks in their hands. It was great to watch her head out to sea about an hour later. What magic it is to see a cruise ship leave, and even better when you know you'll be on board yourself in a few weeks time! I thought I'd share this with all prospective Sky cruisers just to get you in the mood :) . We certainly are! Ans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Druke I Posted February 16, 2006 #2 Share Posted February 16, 2006 Always a thrill to see a ship sail - but much more of a thrill to be aboard. We were on Pacific Sky's last voyage as Sky Princess, San Francisco to Sydney, 11-00, and enjoyed the 27 night passage very much. Hard to beat that trip, sailing from one the world's prettiest harbors to another beautiful harbor, both with great looking bridges! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiselover96 Posted February 16, 2006 #3 Share Posted February 16, 2006 Just looked on the Cam at the Sky and it's still showing it's in Freemantle!! We saw Sky leave from Sydney 3 years ago (it was about 4 weeks before we cruised her) and the excitement was awesome. All the people lined around the railing. Got some great photos. It certainly got you more excited!! (if that's at all possible) lol lol. Kerri Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PerthSkyCruiser Posted February 17, 2006 Author #10 Share Posted February 17, 2006 How exciting Ans!:D Which cruise are you doing again, my hubbie and I are on the P607N, leaving on 4th March!Not long now You beat us by one week as we leave on 11th March. We're on P608N. It's amazing how quickly the time goes when you start counting down. I got very excited yesterday to see the big blue funnel as we entered Fremantle. It's hubby and my first ever cruise together (as you cannot count the trip on the Russian ship Turkmenia when we came to Australia - that was no cruise!). Cheers.

mands Posted February 17, 2006 #11 Share Posted February 17, 2006 We've been on a few holidays but never a cruise, it was my hubby's choice this time and he's been wanting to do one for a while and when the specials came out we just couldn't resist! I know I've been counting since 8 weeks to go and now it's only 2 weeks - ohmygoodness!!! Yippeeeeee:) :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruiselover96 Posted February 18, 2006 #13 Share Posted February 18, 2006 Ohhhhhhh, sounds like they're all going to have a wonderful time tonight then. I wonder how the passengers will be feeling as they are the last to ever sail from Aust. I feel this ship is going to be sadly missed.

saraheg77 Posted February 18, 2006 #14 Share Posted February 18, 2006 Wow - I just realized the Sky is on its way to Kuala Lumpur and has 4 days at sea! I guess they will have lots of activities to keep them entertained! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
