They just called it Pier 11 when we were there in 2019 but it sounds like the same place you're talking about. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ship was docked along side of the Aloha Tower. Tower was right in front of our table in the Horizon Court. Went outside on promenade deck to see and hear a luau taking place next to the Aloha Tower 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiwi_cruiser Posted October 10, 2023 Author #36 Share Posted October 10, 2023 Hello from the Grand Princess, Today we where in Papeete, (Tahiti), French Polynesia. We had a nice day there. In the morning we have a look around the town, and in the afternoon, I went Scuba Driving again, which was fun! 🙂 As we sailed from Papeete we meet up with the Royal Princess, which was cool, but neither ship blow there horns 😰. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare arxcards Posted October 12, 2023 #48 Share Posted October 12, 2023 Commonly available substance that makes a mess but is inert and comparatively easy to clean up - even when there are eggs being thrown about. I presume it is much more fun on Grand Princess than on HMAS Onslow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
