SouthAussie100 Posted November 4, 2007 #1 Share Posted November 4, 2007 We're not 'technically' away are we ? Hubby has said that he doesn't want to go 'away' next year for holidays ? He reckons he is 'holidayed' out after this winter's trips to Cairns, Cruise and Thailand / Cambodia. I was just getting warmed up :D This one would qualify I think ???

S&D Posted November 4, 2007 #4 Share Posted November 4, 2007 Hi there Nessie, Oh yes...it's not far away at all is it???;) This one is on our list for the future....cruising close to home is always good!! S&D:) :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthAussie100 Posted November 4, 2007 Author #5 Share Posted November 4, 2007 yep, he has weakened, when I asked him if we stay "local" for a couple of weeks would he be happy. He agreed, just didn't want the long flights, different currency etc for a change next year.....mission accomplished. I won't spring it on him just yet though....I think he was considering more Victor Harbor (about an hour south of where we live) rather than every other coast in Australia !! :cool: woohoo ! nessie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ianqld Posted November 5, 2007 #8 Share Posted November 5, 2007 We're not 'technically' away are we ? Hubby has said that he doesn't want to go 'away' next year for holidays ? Can you buy duty-free? If you can then you are technically away from Australia :rolleyes: How about a nice holiday on top of the Bluff at Victor or a trip across the bridge to Granite Island :D Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few wines at the bar over there then back to the Hotel Victor spa suite for a few champers.....hmmm doesn't sound bad at all ! Maybe a weekender ?? *reaching for the yellow pages* :cool: cheers nessie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qld cruiser Posted November 6, 2007 #10 Share Posted November 6, 2007 Then pop over to K.I where I grew up. not bad wines from there also. kind regards, Lorraine:) :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sayaguru Posted November 6, 2007 #11 Share Posted November 6, 2007 oooh! that looks very tempting. And it nearly fits in with my school holidays. I'd only have to have a few days off. I could think of worse ways to spend my 50th (29th June). I did want to be in Paris but will be a year late. I'll have to start researching prices now.

CRUISING ALONG Posted November 7, 2007 #14 Share Posted November 7, 2007 Hi Nessie, Dont wait book it tomorrow! We booked this cruise 4 weeks ago and a lot of cabin catergories have already sold out and others are waitlisted to my surprise. I was expecting to be able to pick a particular cabin but it was not to be. I 'm looking forward to seeing some new ports on this cruise and was surprised to see that 5 of the ports will be accessed via the tenders. Now that should be fun!:D Regards CRUISING ALONG:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tenders....hmmm Little bouncing humid crowded smelly sweaty sicky clostraphobic nasty muggy airless 'boats' (did I miss any?).
