January 5 - Leaving Sydney



Sailaway, January 5

All settled in to our cabin and taken a look around the ship, we headed up on deck for sail away drinks.

Leaving Sydney Harbour in the pouring rain. Not a great start, but can’t do much about the weather.

The ship is so very stable we had no problems with the substantial swell leaving the harbour and sailing south to Melbourne.
The Solstice is a sister ship to Silhouette which we sailed on in 2014. So we had not too much trouble finding our way around.

A soggy day in Sydney to start our cruise




No deterring those who gathered at the Oceanview Bar for drinks
