Pacific Dawn - Big, beautiful and bountiful
Quote:
Ian McKinnon gives a preview of life aboard P&O's eagerly awaited Pacific Dawn.
It was just seven years ago that the old Fair Princess cruised out of Sydney for the last time, destined for her final resting place at the bottom of the South China Sea after a short, failed stint as a casino ship.
That same month - November 2000 - Regal Princess docked in Darling Harbour for the first time, unloading about 1900 international passengers on the Australian leg of a world voyage.
The contrast in the ships could not have been greater if you had lined up a rowboat next to the Manly ferry.....
