So nice to be back on the Voyager. The upgrade overall is stunning. La verandah and Compass Rose are totally changed and so much better. The new carpet I really like. The cabins look terrific with a new blue color scheme, new granite and headboard they are very attractive. Only problem is they took away the drawers and overhead cabinets so the storage space has deminished significantly. We figured out how to handle our "stuff". It looks like a brand new ship.

Today we were in Tauranga and it is a lovely spot. We just walked into the town and had a yummy morning tea with Ken, Sheila, Jim and Pam.

Our dinner in Compass Rose tonight was so good. This new menu is fantastic.

Tomorrow Napier, also a nice port. So far really nice weather. We heard the weather was not good on the last cruise so I think the weather gods are with us. Hopefully it will continue.
