Seabound to New Zealand

It was an action filled three weeks touring Australia seeing Kangaroos, Wallabies, Koalas and of course the Great Barrier Reef.  Sometimes it was tough driving for Bruce with his newly fractured clavicle, but he did a great job getting us everywhere in one piece.  However, he wasn’t too sad about relinquishing the automobile at Cairns Airport.  He was ready to let someone else do the driving.

We arrived at our new home for the next eleven days, looking forward to cooked meals, beds made, and being plain lazy.

Sydney Harbor has to be one of the most beautiful harbors in the world.  It’s clean and the old and the new make for such an interesting backdrop.  And you can’t forget the iconic Sydney Opera House.

Of course our first night we had to eat escargot.  I missed it these last few weeks.  Actually you would think I’d be sick of it after eating it for 22 days.  But I wasn’t.

Our first full day on the ship we went to the gym.  Linda and I did a stretching class and Bruce and Stan worked out with weights.   Afterwards breakfast.  Like old times.    We played cards by the indoor solarium pool.  The only place it was warm.

Tomorrow is another day at sea.  More relaxation!

In 2015, I retired and my goal was to do as much traveling as I possibly could. I started the blog for our first month long trip to Panama in October 2015. My sister Linda and her husband Stan joined Bruce and I on our first trip and we decided together on the name the four amigos. Since then, we don’t always travel with them, sometimes just Bruce and I, sometimes other people, whoever wants to join us on our crazy journeys. The name stuck and I grew an affinity to it. So here we are. I invite you to join thefouramigos blog on our next destination.
