New Zealand family cruise

We had our first family holiday with everyone in Mummy's family and it was soooooooooooo fabulous! We went on a 14 days cruise to New Zealand on Sun Princess. We loved every moment of it!There is a boy at the art gallery and I had a crush on him, I kept thinking he's called 'Gru' or "Gus' but only found out he is called Greg after the 14 days!

There are two bubble lifts in the main public area of the ship

 The first two days were just the nice calm sea
 And we decided to do some table tennis 
 Fine dining every night with our own waiters
 First stop- Bay of Islands
 We have bonded so well with Isaac
 There was a piano in the middle of the park! And so I performed a song.
 Second stop-Auckland
 The city

 The pier
 A bar/cafe at the pier


 Third stop-Tauranga
 We went to a kiwi farm and found out how kiwis were grown!


 The kiwi farm also served freshly made fruit and yogurt ice cream! 

 This is our waiter Poomi from Thailand. He's really nice and attentive and the best part is he is really good at twisting balloons! So almost every night we all had different balloons! 

 Since Christmas was near there were Ginger Bread house displays made by people in the ship 
 Forth stop-Napier







 Fifth stop-Wellington
 It was cold that day (in mid-summer) and we just walked around the city and stayed inside a huge book shop using their wifi and I also got my Frozen book!

 Choir was singing Christmas carols
 Sixth stop-Akaroa
 This beautiful town only has a few shops and is so peaceful here
 Library that is the size of a house



 There was a Christmas celebration on the ship
 We decorated gingerbread biscuits

 We did face painting


 Took photo and got a present from Santa!
 


 Seventh stop-Dunedin
 We stopped at this historical church built 100 years ago and listened to the organ playing. It was astonishing

 Then there was an art gallery/ exhibition centre with an area to do some arts and craft. We spent a long time making fun things there 


 They had a giant air bag mountain and it was so fun running and rolling in it

 They also had these really nice chickens by a Korean artist

 The last stop that we don't get to get off is Fiordland Natural Park. It was very scenic and there were two waterfalls
  
   
  


  
 Last night before we end our 14 days cruise. Thank you Poomi and Robert! 
 And we celebrated Kau Fu Glasses' birthday the day we landed and we left for Hong Kong the next day... we all miss every part of the cruise sooooooooooo much!
