Hi Peggy - The ship is berthed in the best position. Great views from the rear lounge. Don't know what time you're sailing, but the sun is desperately trying to come out at the moment (3.15pm). I've been thinking of all on board and hoping the wind drops and the sun comes out. Seeing the harbour in sunlight makes such a difference. One day I'll sail out of Sydney Harbour on a Regent ship. My last and only experience was almost 40 years ago when I sailed to New Zealand. That's when Ngaire's and my paths crossed. Have a fabulous time - wish I could join you all. Lee
