Totally agree.

We would like to make next holiday a

cruise, but we promised DD that we would

take her and a friend back to Cairns as she

loved it ...tried talking her into doing a cruise

instead but no go:( ..not sure we are really

related..land based over cruising:eek:

Hi Seadreams27 (Lorrae)

 

Welcome Home!

Thankyou for your review. Great reading. Glad to read you made it to Mystery Island as a lot of cruises seem to miss this port.

 

Regards

If you become disoriented, there is a tip that worked for my missus - look at the cabin doors. If the numbers are going down, you are heading to the pointy end.

 

 

Wow, I wish I'd thought of that on Pacific Sun the first time we went on her. We were in an inside cabin, and I found that without a window to orientate me as I left the cabin, I was forever going in the wrong direction.

Ok here goes.

 

Just to start with.. the ship that we were on seems

to be a different one from the one that I have been

reading about:confused:

 

We were so excited about going on our first cruise that

we were at the wharf at 9.30am.. arrived in a very expensive

taxi ($56) our own fault for travelling in peak hour traffic..)

We had our bags taken off us as soon as we stepped out of

the taxi.. then to get our cards..took 5 mins..a couple of hours to

just look at the ship and have a couple of cups of coffee..

then...we are on. It was about 12;10 and we were on the bags

were in the cabin and we are sitting down having lunch..

talk about quick..

Our cabin was on Baja deck 10 it was lovely and yes we loved

the balcony and we did use it . We would get a balcony cabin

again if we could get a good price on it.. this one only cost us an

extra $200 so it was worth it.

 

The weather for sailaway was perfect as it was for most of the

cruise..the ocean was like a millpond for at least 8 of the days and

when it got lumpy it was only a little bit..

The service and the crew on the ship we found to be excellent..not at

any time did we come across a grumpy or unhelpful person.. and when

you think og the hours that they work I'm sure I would lose my smile

after a while.

 

To be cont...

Hi

She is a beautiful ship isn't she:D ?

Did you have Andrew Froude as captain? If you did how did you find him?

Did he mingle with passangers ect.....

Thanks Gail

[Seadreams27]

Hi Gail.

WE had captain Lorenzo Paoletti.

The only time we saw him was at the captains cocktail

party..where he was quite charming and made sure to do

the rounds and talk to everyone..apart from this I can't

remember seeing him anywhere..I get the the impression

he was there to captain the ship and the passengers were

incidental .

Funny you should say that,as we did not attend the Captains coctail party we never saw him,every time a bloke in a white suit would walk past i would ask hubby is that him.(NO)was the answer
