I feel like I’ve been a bad blogger – haven’t updated in days. Melbourne was WONDERFUL. We were fortunately to have two friends of the guy who is housesitting for us to act as tour guides. It’s a wonderful, cosmopolitan city. Great ethnic diversity (READ FOOD) – French fries with herbs and wonderful slices! We went up in the skytower and saw the skyline of the harbor at sunset, had dinner, and then went to their apartment for a relaxed evening where they told us all about life in Australia. The next day they acted as tour guides taking us all around the city. Melbourne is definitely on our come back to list.
The day at sea was relaxing – didn’t really do much except sleep and enjoy the entertainment. Usually Atlantis has a special guest star as a surprise. But, due to us all going to the Mardi Gras parade this evening there wasn’t – but we enjoyed a great cabaret duo, and a great comedian.
Sailing into Sydney was wonderful. It’s a gorgeous sunny day. We did a harbor cruise and some souvenir shopping. Now we’re back on the boat getting ready for the parade. The weather is perfect so we’re really looking forward to it!
