On my Transpacific cruise on the Ruby Princess in 2019 

from San Pedro Cruise wharf in Los Angeles

to Auckland, New Zealand.

 I booked an Obstructed Oceanview cabin.

Loved the outlay of this cabin which left the window uncluttered.

 This was my view out the window it was great

 as I could check the weather before I dressed for the day.

Photos from my recent trip to the Hobbit Movie Set, 
Hobbiton, Tauranga, New Zealand.

Everywhere you looked was a photographer dream shoot.

Absolutely gorgeous

Cruising from Los Angeles, USA to Auckland, New Zealand on the Ruby Princess 20 nights then I stayed in Auckland for 4 nights then from Auckland to Sydney, Australia on the Golden Princess for 6 nights, we missed out on Napier, NZ as the crossing between the North and South Islands of NZ was too rough so after leaving Tauranga to sailed up to the Bay of Islands then over to Sydney.

I recommend this trip it was a fun way to visit America, Hawaii, Tahiti, American Samoa and New Zealand and finishing up in Australia.

I flew to Los Angeles via Honolulu on the 19th September stayed in LA for 4 nights then boarded the Ruby Princess on the 24th Sept. it is now 1st October. Not able to get my photos to post will try again later. 

Loving my time onboard.

Two weeks to go before I board a plane to fly to Los Angeles

 then embark on the Ruby Princess 20 day cruise to Auckland, NZ. 

Where I will spend 4 days then I will hop on the Golden Princess

 to cruise 6 days to Sydney, AUS.

It can't come quick enough. There will be lots of sea days which I am so looking forward to enjoy. My last cruise was for 22 days in 2017 from Yokohama, Japan to Sydney. AUS.
