I will try to keep this as short as possible, although I could write a book about it.
Faulty plumbing in bathroom making terrible noises throughout the day. Flooding of floor of cabin from outside source. Cabin change to so called upgrade that was really a category downgrade. New cabin had permanent black ring in toilet from wearing out of porcelain and bathroom lights flickered off and on incessantly.
40th anniversary cruise with 3 other couples. Couldn't dock safely in Cairns because of weather and ocean conditions. Port Hedland and Geraldton complete wastes of time and money. Absolutely nothing to see or do there. Must be because they are cheap places to dock.
The plumbing in the bathroom sounded as if the ship's horn was directly connected to it. Terrible noise all day long. Major flooding of floor from ?another cabin?. "Upgraded" to lower category cabin because of stinky flooded carpet.
Weather was not good or safe enough to dock or tender. Missed lifetime experience of snorkeling in Great Barrier Reef. Too bad
Visited WWI trench mock up. INteresting
