Just over two months to go!

A lot of folks on the Cruise Critic roll call have been working overtime trying to find private tours to save some money over what Holland America charges. So far we have done quite well, and have found a lot of tours, especially for the islands at much cheaper prices.

To date, Sharon and I have committed to tours on:

Bora Bora
Nuka Hiva
Cairns
Bay of Islands
Tauranga
Hobart
Morea
Christchurch
Pago Pago
Suva Fiji
Nuka alofa, Tonga
Apia Samoa
Dunedin NZ

In addition, we plan on using HoHo buses in Sydney, Aukland, and Brisbane, city buses in Melbourne. In Wellington a few of us will be going out to Zealandia Sanctuary.

There still are a few others working but not definite as yet. Hawaii is the next big port to worry about and I'm not sure just what we are going to do there.

We have however already started looking at what we are going to pack to try and keep baggage down to only three or four bags max. We will see if it really happens!

That's all for now,

Bill and Sharon
