Sounds great, we cruise NZ, South pacific on the Voyager of the seas in November this year, will be our second cruise. Couldn't think of a better way to holiday but very expensive.
Enjoy your cruise Keith and Alice - as I know you will. Don't think I would like to go on a cruise - maybe when I am a bit older it might appeal - but got too much to see in Oz yet! Take care.

Have a great time Alice & Keith!! Watch out buying electronics like computers etc overseas - you often wont get a warranty on it when you get back (and dont believe the salesman). You need to check direct with the manufacturer (they response quickly on-line) about world-wide warranty.

The amazing things you see when nomading Australia
Have a wonderful time but my advice is not to buy any computers in Asia. Frequently the computer operating software and any other pre-loaded software is a dirt cheap copy and you will have absolutely no chance of getting it fixed if anything happens. The components can also be an issue (what they tell you may be VERY different from what you actually get) and price differentials are not worth the risk of a warranty that's not valid here. So many sales on during year here now that you can usually get what you need at a reasonable price.
