Arrived at White Bay terminal Sydney. The whole process from unloading cases to completing paper work and moving through customs and immigration was completed within the hour. When we arrived at the cabin on deck twelve are luggage had arrived. Because this cruise is thirty five days next to no children or teenagers. Lots of people in there seventies. We had dinner that evening in the Horizon Restaurant the standard was outstanding and the food presentation, quality was of a high standard. During the cruise they have theme food nights and they deck out the restaurant and tables and staff it looks slick and leaves a good impression. First impressions of the staff great they really want to help and want you to enjoy yourself. Plenty of information in your cabin on your ports of call and includes points of interest. Here are some pointers. Cocktails from approx. $14.00 AUS each beers and ciders approx. $6.50AUS. For smokers deck twelve and seven are your designated areas. Deck twelve is undercover and next to the bar and toilets. Cigarettes. You are able to buy a pack of twenty from the bar for $10.00 AUS. You have three styles of plug in your cabin only one is Australian I suggest you take a power board with you. Watch your cruise card near yous phone or I pads, they wipe all your information and you also cannot get into your cabin. I replaced mine four times.

This cruise was full so meal times especially breakfast becomes an ordeal you need to go early say 7am or late say 10.15am this way you miss the madness. Dinning of an evening has two seatings one at 5,30pm the other at 7.45pm. if you go as a group you will not be seating at the same table. See the Maitre D Hotel, he should be able to sort you out.

We dined at the Sterling Steakhouse cost of $25.00 per head. You have a selection of steaks, pork or lamb.Good selection of wines, wine prices compare with a restaurant or pub. The meal and service was outstanding. To Richard, Malcom & team thanks for a great evening. Nice touch the next day receiving a thank you letter for dinning there. We went back again before the cruise ended. You have to try it its the best $25.00 you will ever spend. Read more
