Australia has great (although high alcohol content) beer. The locals really love VB (Victoria Bitter) and worth pursuing. Celebrity Solstice includes it in their standard drink package.
Wild "Roos" on the golf course on the way to the Great Ocean Road outside Melbourne, AU.
New Zealand has the most beautiful scenery in the world according to most of the passengers we talked to on Celebrity. Absolutely stunning views on excursions to the countrysides.
Maori village shows always include renditions of the cannibals who stick their tongues out to show they want to eat you.
New Zealand is near the South Pole and has beautiful wildlife. This is a penguin at Auckland Aquarium. Worth the time to visit especially if you love wildlife and have children.

As usual, the staff on the Solstice lived up to our expectations of outstanding service. The Ship is in very good shape although our cruise had to endure long lines getting checked in due to delayed boarding caused by Norovirus that was found on the preceding cruise.

Still highly recommend Celebrity Solstice.
