New Zealand & Australia Cruise - Burnie Tasmania 2nd visit

Visited Burnie again on our second cruise. Took a customized tour with 2 fellow cruisers. Stuart Ashdown of That's the Spirit Tours took us to see coastal towns from Burnie to Devonport, plus he pulled over to let us photograph kangaroos in a field, and took us to Sheffield to have lunch and admire the beautiful murals there.

Then we spent a few days at sea getting to New Zealand. Along the way, we were entertained by trivia and golf putting (Howard), trying to identify art work around the ship for a "Scavenger Hunt," plus wrestling with an aging laptop (Ruth). We were also both entertained by the creativity and thoughtfulness of our wonderful room steward Rosario.
