AFF Cruise #2. Rerun. Crown Princess 4 nights 25-29 January 2025

I like a bit of movement - helps to remind me I am on a ship.

And I am referring to the sea being choppy or rough.

Sydney seem to have fallen in a bit of a hole - a couple of quick wickets.

And round we go

I’ve been around these cliffs in a little jet boat. I prefer the Crown Princess.

Probably stay a bit drier

Like the martinis at the bar(s)!

20min holds at SYD airport means a big mess if you look at FR24.

OT: Tell me about it! I was just caught up in it aboard QF148.

And that's a wrap from BBL - Hurricanes delivered a lesson in batting expertise.

We took an Uber out to Frogmore Creek for a fantastic lunch and a delightful bottle of Pinot Noir.
The Wallaby was really good

So were the Oysters and Scallops.
The chocolate dessert finished off lunch on a high note.

Scallops with roe on or off?

Could make for a great discussion.

Having read (almost) all of your posts, the FOMO I had leading up to the cruise as well and truly set in! Looks like you're all having a great time and I hope you enjoyed our lovely city yesterday. I'll be first in line for the next AFF cruise. See you all at the AKL dinner.

Sea is up but we are still making 20 knots with the stabilisers out
