Coming to an End

This is our last day of the cruise. We don't want it to end! I don't know what Grace is going to think when she has to go back to eating in our quiet house and not having 6 different green veggies every night. I may need to learn how to cook a few new veggies for her since she has found a few new favorites. We have really enjoyed our vacation! We still have 3 days in Sydney before we will be home. Tomorrow we are renting a car and driving to the Blue Mountains and on Friday we are taking a behind the scenes tour of the Sydney Zoo. Grace will get to feed kangaroos and take pictures with the koala bears!!!
I don't remember where I left off so I think I will wait until I have pictures to update on all of our adventures. If we were to do another cruise there would be things we would do differently. We won't be booking our shore excursions with the cruise ship. The two days we did have excursions with the ship were nice but very long and at times rushed. I will say that Dunedin was our very favorite port! We got to do and see so much there and just had a wonderful day. We had booked a private tour and the driver was very knowledgeable about the area and all of the wildlife. We saw endangered penguins up close!
The weather has been perfect the entire cruise too! On Monday we were in Milford Sound and saw LOTS of dolphins. More than on our dolphin cruise! There is so much more to write about but I don't have the time right now. When I get back home and get a working computer I will start by sharing lots of our wonderful pictures!

Thanks for the update! The zoo sounds like lots of fun and I'm sure Grace will enjoy it. I hope you find lots of ways to have fun in Sydney!

Love,
