Sailaway from Sydney last evening was perfect. The weather was gorgeous, the drinks flowed, the Harbour Bridge and Opera House glowed and the band played on! What a beautiful sight. We did a half-day excursion yesterday afternoon to the Koala Park Sanctuary, which was nice. Lots of koalas and kangeroos and cockatoos, oh my! Had a wonderful meal on Monday night at La Veranda, which was "Australian Roadhouse". Lots of comfort food (meat loaf and chicken breast), which was nice after the exotic meals in Sydney. Last night we both had a wonderful Japanese Steak Stir-fry in CR. Very good. No shows or listening to music last night. Sorry to report that we don't play games or trivia, so this report won't be as exciting as past ones. We are at sea today as we head to Melbourne. The weather is overcast (first overcast day since we arrived in Sydney a week ago Monday). Linda will do a few treatments at the Spa and Larry will just relax. Formal night and Captain's reception this evening. Will report later. Linda & Larry
