Photo Albums of Our 2016-2017 Travels to
Australia, New Zealand, and Polynesia

This web page contains links to photo albums of our "down under" travels in 2016-2017. In all, it was a 5-month saga of travel to and around Australia and Polynesia, primarily on cruise ships.

To start, we left the U. S. in late 2016 on a cruise ship, arriving in Sydney, Australia. After a day "turn around", we stayed aboard, and continued on a one-month cruise completely around the Australian continent.

In mid-November 2016, we landed in Sydney, and stayed ashore for several weeks. During that time, we traveled from Sydney to Melbourne for more sight-seeing and a round-trip cruise to New Zealand during Christmas.

In mid-January 2017 we left Sydney and took a cruise ship back to the U. S., finally arriving in San Diego.

Seattle to Sydney, Australia

This cruise, with several interesting stops, took us to Australia from Seattle.

Complete Circle Cruise of Australia

Stops included Bali and the West Coast of Oz. The West Coast is quite isolated and is not on the usual "tourist" itinerary. Equally isolated is the North coast, which we also managed to visit. Near the end of the "circle" we visited some ports on the South side of Oz.
