Default Re: cruise ship/export cattle trade.

Yes agree, best holiday I ever had was a 18 day circumnavigation of NZ aboard the Volendam.
Left Sydney for Melbourne, Milford Sound, navigated down through the Fiord Lands to Oban on Steward Island in the Southern Ocean, up to Dunedin, Akoroa (Christchurch just had the earthquake) Picton, Wellington, Napier, Tauranga, Auckland and the bay of Islands back to Sydney in a Force 7 gale for 3 days.

2011, I remember 18 days was around $2000 at the time with a promenade cabin view. Holland America lines lots of yanks, no bl**dy kids, no drunks.
Only agreed to go due to it having smaller passenger number of 1500 and is an ocean liner not a cruise ship.

My ol man spends 8 months of the year cruising with them and gets great repositioning voyage deals.
