If you are taking extra large luggage maybe you could sneak us aboard!

Oh well, just dreaming. [/size]

Keith & Rita,

Wish I could. but alas & alack; alas I can't because alack of cash!

Every time I've been here y'll going somewhere else....so where's next for you? If you decide Austrailia....come on along!

We just have a short trip to Chicago and then our New Year cruise. We would love to take a cruise to Australia and New Zealand, however it will have to wait until I retire!

[ANJAN]

Well I guess it's just gonna be my wife and me......whatever will we do on that "great big ship" all by ourselves? I guess we still have about 419 days for some people to join us......SO COME ON PEOPLE!!!

Andy,

The Diamond Princess is one of our all time favorite ships. You will love her.

I appreciate it! I have read some unflattering things about her on other boards. I usually wait until I board to form an opinion but this cruise is a little more stressful because not only of the all the firsts (first cruise over 7 days more or less the first time in Oz/New Zealand, etc) but because of the main reason we are going (to scatter Mom's ashes).

So anything that might be able to lessen my trepidation is greatly appreciated!

Andy

P.S. Since I mentioned it does anyone know who I would contact in Oz (Tasmania) to find the rules governing this, Thanks again
