G'day me hardies...

Milo here just checking in to see if your all still here..smile

Dad and I are having a great time on the Pacific Jewel,  she is a grand ship!

And you just about need a gps to find your way around it, first day on the sea i was sea sick as much as 75% of passengers and crew were, very rough seasbleh but i had the needle for it and have been fine ever sinceconfuse

The food on here is first class, crew are awsome and fun and get along well with, entertainment is awsome, and I actually got to meet our Captain of the ship , asked about a bridge tour for dad but was told there not allowed to do it any more  unfortunatly

 

so far been to Noumea, it was ok, but mystery island won my heart , i love walking on the beach and this was great., id post a pic but not sure how good the net is on here..

dad is really enjoying this trip , now flaked out on his bed before we go for dinner, i thought i lost some weight before i left, but will have to work it off when summer comes back..hmm

 

any ways will keep you all uptodate, i see its still cold at home but here its currently

76 F degrees, what ever that is in centergrade i have no idea..

 

any way will chat later , have fun guys, lifes too short , i can feel her engines running now and were about to set sail for port Villa !!

 

stay safe every one

Technology is a wonderful thing, when it works.
It's great to hear about your venture on the ship with you dad. What a great experience.
Enjoy where you are.

Sounds like a great trip milo. Now I'm jealous even though the thought of ships frightens me. Enjoy every moment of it just for me.

 That last line is a great sign that you're really having a ball!

The experience you're having in being the foreigner is one all Australians should experience.  It broadens the mind (as the cliche goes) and gives us a different perspective on people from other nations.

Your time spent with your Dad is very precious, make the most of it.
