Leaving Sydney on the Diamond Princess



On Friday we boarded our cruise ship, the Diamond Princess in Sydney harbour and set sell at dusk.   It was a very warm evening and we were on deck as the big ship slowly maneuvered out of the harbour area.  The sights were magical, with the Sydney skyline and Opera House lighting up as the sun went down.  It made for a special evening.


Our ship was docked in the Circular Quay harbour.

Backing out of our dock with the famous Harbour Bridge behind us.

The lights of the city were turned on as the sun set.


Make the turn towards the sea was a tricky maneuver. Look out for that bridge!

What a spectacular view.
