We’re Down-Under and Under-Way
I don’t know how many of you have traveled on an airplane for 14 hours, but we can all tell you that we’re mighty glad that is over!
We departed our berth at Darling Harbour in Sydney yesterday afternoon aboard the Sun Princess and navigated our way across Sydney Harbour passing under the Harbour Bridge and in front of the Sydney Opera House. We then altered course to port and and set an easterly course out into the Tasman Sea. Today we’re en-route towards the North Island of New Zealand. The Tasman Sea can be rough from time to time; seas were 8’, winds 20-25K. We’re getting our sea legs.
The weather is a bit cooler than we had expected. It’s around 72 degrees and a little cloud cover. During our Bus Tour of Sydney yesterday the driver told us it was over 100 degrees for the past week and the cooler weather was a welcome change.
