We’ve just spent four days in Sydney and believe it or not, today is our last day in Australia. It has been an absolutely fabulous trip, full of amazing experiences, wonderful people, and the beauty of this gorgeous country.
Happily, our adventures are not yet over. This evening we embark on the MS Noordam for a 15-day cruise from Sydney to Honolulu. On the way we will visit Fiji, American Samoa, and New Caledonia. I will continue to write about our experiences during the cruise but I am not sure I will be able to post any blogs while on board, due to limited internet service. Once we reach Honolulu new posts will go up. For now, I leave you with some snapshots of our time here in Sydney.

ago. Here she is passing in front of Newcastle Beach at sunset.
