We enjoyed it a lot. We did a 32-day cruise on Holland America’s World Cruise. It was a segment from Buenos Aires to Sydney that included 3-days in Antarctica. This cruise enabled us to accomplish our goal by visiting all 7 Continents. The best cruise ever – especially making friends with a couple from Canada & a couple from Bermuda & Germany. We enjoyed traveling in Australia to Melbourne, Alice Springs, Darwin, Brisbane, Cairns and Perth – we missed Adelaide. Since our piggy bank was low on funds because the USA $dollar was weak compared to the Australian dollar (even today 1 Australian dollar equals 72-cents USA), we shoved off for beautiful New Zealand where everything was far less expensive. Perhaps some day we’ll find our way back where a friend has a beautiful apartment in Sydney overlooking Port Jackson and the huge cruise ships coming and going.
Ciao,
Michael and Gina
Rome, Italy
