We went to Brisbane for two days before the cruise and went to parks, museums and the movies and ate Korean BBQ and sushi train. Then we went on a cruise for a week on the Pacific Dawn. It took 2 days to get to Noumea. On the ship, we watched shows and movies, ate quite a lot (and walked a lot too), went in the pool/spa, did trivia and other activities, hung out in our cabin and the kids went to kids club.
In Noumea, we took the public bus to the beach and back, ate gelato at the beach and skipped stones, walked back to the ship through the city square. In Lifou, Catherine was sick in the morning, so Nicholas and I took the tender to shore to go snorkelling, then Alellie and Catherine tendered to the island in the afternoon and played on the beach. In Port Vila, it was hot so we hung around in a cafe, before walking up the hill to meet up with Ryan (who was on a work trip by coincidence), then we had lunch, went to the markets and took a water taxi back to the ship.
Then it was another two days back to Brisbane. We met up with family who were also travelling at Brisbane airport both on the way there and the way back. After waiting several hours at Brisbane Airport we back to sunny but cool Canberra.
