In December I rejoined my latest favourite ship, Silver Nova, in Auckland for a sixteen-day cruise around the South Pacific islands, ending in Sydney. As expected, the ship was very comfortable with the same fabulous service and great food I enjoyed aboard her in October. The age demographic of the passengers on this cruise was a bit younger than I expected and all were congenial.

Wonderful photos as usual, Tim. Thanks for taking part in the "My Sunday Best" meme. (Commenting from here as I can't leave a comment from NixPixMix)
