Napier - After another rough night of gale force winds and 20 ft. waves, I am drugged out from all the seasick tablets once again. Both LJ and I, along with many others left dinner about 10 minutes into the seating. The sea was too much to take and rather than making a big mess on the table it was safer to retreat to the cabin. Ugh. I'm at the public library right now taking advantage of fast internet and will post some Wellington photos later. We're getting down to the wire now. Tomorrow is another dreaded sea day and then we finally get to Hobbiton for another LOTR tour. After that we dock in Auckland and return to Sydney before flying home on Monday. I have to say that I will hopefully never be on a cruise again with this many sea days. If so, I think I'll leave my suitcase on board and fly or drive to the next port!
Dusseldorf - continued
The sun slowly gave way to clouds then rain. This is not a city for walking in the rain. Before it was time to shelter and stay dry, I did one last walk around the area. The business district and surrounding areas are clean and little graffiti or murals. Found this flamingo? near the old city. While the leaves probably congest the waterways, they do look cool floating on the water. Ornate door entrance. Soon after this was taken, the clouds and mist lowered and the top of tower stayed obscured for the rest of my stay. I decided to pass on paying to go to the top when there was no visibility. Back in my hotel room I saw this rainbow emerge right before the rain started pelting down.
