Yellow Fish cruises

We just needed eight more days to psych ourselves up for that looooonnnnngggggg flight home. 

One final run back up to the islands. We are ready for some lazy beach days interrupted by bouts of snorkeling, with lens defogger and ear ...

We had talked about perhaps dropping off for two weeks, to explore more of Australia, but the allure of a new ship and our desire to keep i...

A nearly identical itinerary, in reverse, but on a totally different ship. The opportunity to “cross-ship” was too good to pass up! ...

Two stops in Australia before Crossing the Ditch and a turnaround in Auckland. This one’s a little different.

A short run back up to “the islands”, on a special cruise that’s billed to be a “Traveling Film Festival at Sea”. We have no idea what that...
