Neilius Posted May 29, 2007 #1 Share Posted May 29, 2007 Hi everyone Here's a timelapse video I did this morning of Pacific Star arriving in Auckland Harbor before dawn. Even though I'm not a kiwi, this looks like one harbour that I really MUST sail into one day! Hope you enjoy it. Neil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MsMinx Posted May 29, 2007 #4 Share Posted May 29, 2007 WOW!! I've never really been interested in cruising to NZ, but after seeing that i've changed my mind! I've got the latetest brochure here with me today - think I might see what's going there for 09..................and then talk hubby into it LOL! :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chardonnaykmw Posted May 29, 2007 #5 Share Posted May 29, 2007 Hi Neil Another great vid........... many thanks! Crowded House was a great choice. cheers!! Karen;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaseyoz Posted May 29, 2007 #6 Share Posted May 29, 2007 thanks for the video. yes auckland is a great harbour. That building to the right as she sailed in, is actually the hilton hotel, great place to stay if crusing. auckland is wonderful,as like sydney, she docks right in the centre of town. jo, you should book for NZ, It is an amazing place to cruise but it just makes you want to go back again and check it out further Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riffraff Posted May 29, 2007 #8 Share Posted May 29, 2007 I agree that Auckland Harbour is a great harbour - having lived there most of my life I have to say that! But despite that I've only done one cruise on it - a small cruise in the early morning to welcome the maiden voyage of Oriana - she sped past us out near the entrance to the harbour and was nearly docked by the time our boat made it back - but it was great to see her arrive in the pre-dawn.

Riffraff Posted May 30, 2007 #11 Share Posted May 30, 2007 Love your Avatar Riffraff:D . Would love to get that print but is that one he does exclusively for P&O? Karen I think it might be an 'exclusive for cruises' one, Karen. I got it off his website - we saw it there and liked it, and I think it's under the "Princess Cruises" link on the webpage. We'd love to get a real one! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riffraff Posted May 30, 2007 #12 Share Posted May 30, 2007 Which Oriana? The current one, or the original? it was the current one - can't quite remember the exact date, but it was it's maiden call on it's first world cruise - think it was January 96.
