    Aloha

    We did Carnival last year to New Caledonia. Unfortunately it was the most excruciating holiday I have ever had. However that may have to do with the people on board, it was bogan central. Make friends with your dinner waiter as there is always meals that aren't on the menu, we had some...

    Ovation of the Seas, and a few flights along the way.

    Love the report, a saying is never embark on a cruise that leaves from an Australian port, my last experience with Carnival never was a truer word spoken. I wish you could caption the Wonderland photos as try as I might I can't match the dishes to the menu !!! Cheers

    Syd Akl return over on LAN back On Emirates in Y

    For a 3 hour flight its not too bad, $800 vs $250 difference I can live with, but anything longer it makes it worthwhile, previously I used to points upgrade most trips to NZ but the Emirates service was good enough to make me think twice

    After a great time in Auckland ferry to Davenport, dinner with friends and relaxing without kids it was time to head home EK413 Dpt AKL 3.55 Arr SYD 7.18 - it was pretty much on time, check in was a breeze, but they stick it at the far end of the airport and despite picking A and C seats hoping...

    Syd Akl return over on LAN back On Emirates in Y

    Yes I know it is in Y but not all of us have FF points to sit up the front. Anyway you feel sometimes that unless you are flying J or F your report is not worth reading, I am sure more people would write reports if flying in Y wasn't so frowned upon, or looked down upon. A child free weekend...

    2 weeks in Hawaii

    One thing I forgot was the free wifi standard at all the Hotels, up to 10 devices can be connected at the Westin and speeds were great. Makes a joke of charging for Wi-fi in Australian hotels. Also the free wi-fi at Sydney airport was next to unusable. McDonalds was our saviour in Waikiki...

    25 Dec HAL 359 Kahului to Kauai Island Lihue Municipal Apt 45 minutes Boeing 717 Thought I would be smart and sit the kids next to the windows, forgot that down the back there are some big noisy engines that block the view. Massive fail Dad Kauai is much more laid back the Mauii and we...

    2 weeks in Hawaii

    Did the drive up to Magnetic Peak 10,000ft and it was Cold and Windy but well worth it. We also did the drive to Hana which is all about the journey as the destination was a small village and it was raining. Recommend you drive via the south road as it is amazing arid landscape and suddenly...

    2 weeks in Hawaii

    Family trip to meet up with Sister in Laws family from Chicago, Hawaii seemed to be in the middle. This isn’t up the pointy end by any means but when you are paying for it it does seem to be a bit extravagant. Airfares for 2 adults and 3 children were about $8500 which included 3 internal...
