Well, just a short update - it was recently announced that P&O Australia will cease operations next March. Two of their ships - Pacific Adventure and Pacific Encounter will move over to Carnival Cruise Lines, but the Pacific Explorer will be sold. And unfortunately this means that Paul's 70th birthday cruise is no more. Currently looking at other options such as a resort.
