I came back to the room one day about noon to find a message
left in our room. It said something like ‘We noted that you do not have an
Australian visa. Here are the directions for you to obtain a visa online at
your expense. If you have not handed in your Australian visa to guest relations
by time we reach our first port in New Zealand, you will be asked to disembark
the ship.’
Now is this the first time we needed a visa?
Now is this the first time we needed a visa?
Greg and I are old and we need somebody to travel with us
who can get us to the airport at the right time on the right day with the right
visas in our pockets.
Any volunteers?

So I went online, registered, printed the visas and Greg
took them to Guest Relations. Greg said he checked every country we were going
to for visas except Australia because he knew they were part of the Commonwealth and thought we required no visa.
Still cruising and happy.

Did you need a visa? Did you have a commonwealth pass as a Canadian? The intricacies of travel. I hope you were able to land and avoid those forest fires blazing. Wishing for a deluge of rain in Australia!
ReplyDeleteWe are here in Sydney right now. Greg is still out but I came back to the hotel to check in online. We took a ferry ride around the harbour. Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteYes, we did need a visa and now all is well.
