Sailing out of Sydney Harbour
We boarded the ship mid afternoon and it looked beautiful. We went straight to our room, hoping our luggage wasn't too far away. We were met by our room attendant and sure enough, he brought our bags not too much later. So we were able to unpack fully and get settled, before heading up to the pool deck for the welcome party. It was actually a bit cool up there so we tried to find a spot out of the wind, drank their complimentary beers, listened to their entertainment before heading indoors. I managed to see this massive ship pull away from the dock, reverse up to the Sydney Harbour Bridge and then move forwards past the Opera House. I'll post some photos when we have better service.
Having headed indoors, we went to the main theatre for our first show. Given we are scheduled for late dining in the main dining room, that means we can see the early show and tonight it was Amber Lawrence. I'd never heard her before but I really liked her sound so it was a shame we had to leave early to go to our dinner reservation in one of the specialty restaurants.
It was an American steakhouse and it was actually very good. We had starters and a large chunk of filet mignon each, so we couldn't even fit dessert in. We then found the casino for Greg to play the pokies. However, at the end of a very big week, we headed to bed early instead of seeking out some of the other musicians who were playing at four of the venues across the ship. It doesn't look like we'll ever be bored on this cruise!
