We have waited so long, it’s been nearly 3 years since the last time we sailed.
We had a nice breakfast at our hotel then headed down to the Overseas Passenger Terminal in Sydney.
Our ship was here nice and early, we could see her from our hotel.
We waited til our boarding time and we were on the ship in around 30 minutes.
We took some great photos before boarding.
Our grand suite is on deck 8.
So I sit here now, totally exhausted after a big day. We are unpacked, have completed four emergency drill requirements so we are officially on holidays now.
Happy cruising to us!!
