Return to Rick's Main Site

Welcome!

This site contains information, notes, pictures and rambling thoughts about my travels to Australia and New Zealand in March/April 2006.

This trip will be a combined land tour and cruise. The land tour will be 6 days in Australia: 2 days in Sydney, 2 days at Ayer's Rock and 2 days at Port Douglas and the Great Barrier Reef. We then return to Sydney to board the Diamond Princess cruiseliner for a 12 day cruise to Melbourne, Hobart (Tasmania), the Fjordlands of New Zealand, Dunedin, Christchurch, Tauranga and Auckland. We finish with 2 days in Auckland, New Zealand before heading back to Dallas.
