South Pacific Cruise

Time to update my blog again.

I will be doing my updates in word and will cut them cross in the right order, that way I will have a backup if the same thing happens again.

My Next trip is a girls only cruise to the South Pacific, it is 9 nights sailing out of Sydney and visiting:

Nouméa, New Caledonia
Lifou, Loyalty Island
Mystery Island, Vanuatu
Isle of Pines, New Caledonia

This is for my friend Tammy's 40th birthday. We have a sea view room with a window on deck 2.


We have not picked our shore visits or anything yet, so need to sit down and nut this all out.


I am also simultaneously booking my holiday with hubby to Mexico, Caribbean USA for 5 weeks without kiddies. This will be another post.


I have taken out a multi trip policy for travel insurance with American Express Travel Insurance again. They were great to deal with and very quick in processing our claim for our lost and stolen items on our last trip. it cost $450 for family of 4 for multi trips, so I can use it on the cruise and we can use it for later on in the year.


This is the first time that any of us are going on a cruise and we are travelling on the Royal Caribbean Rhapsody of the Sea's.


This is an American ship and it was refurbished last year.


Need to do some reading up on what to pack for a cruise I did go and buy a new pair of swimmers, but apart from that I'm flying blind.


Here is to the next adventure
