The Crown Princess was hit by awful weather once again between Adelaide and Perth causing a delay in the arrival to Perth.
“Bah! More waves, more storms has slowed us down; these waves are definitely gnarly. We’re now expected to get into Perth after 3PM tomorrow, which means no quokkas for me!! ** CRY ** Captain hasn’t said if we are going to stay the night in Perth or not (selfish me wants to stay 24 hours!)
This is reminding me why I shouldn’t book tours on *any* cruise until we’re a day out from the port, the weather is really in control it seems and I’ve been SO excited since we left Auckland to go to Rottness Island and explore.”
So we had 8 meter swells last night – so 26 feet. We will get into Perth late & will miss my tour, however we are now overnighting and theres just enough time in the morning to go to Rottnest and see the quokkas!!
