On 17th October, 2016, 28 Probus members boarded a bus at Baxter Village, and, upon arrival at Tullamarine, flew to Sydney where they boarded the “Radiance of the Seas” cruise ship to commence their eagerly awaited Bravo Music Cruise.
Whilst on the cruise, Probus members took advantage of the excellent food and wine at the many restaurants on board. Evening concerts in the main theatre, and continuous performances at other venues throughout the day and evening, gave everyone the opportunity to be entertained by a variety of first class artists. These included Dame Kiri Te Kanawa, Marina Prior, David Hobson and Teddy Tahu Rhodes, who left audiences spellbound.
During the trip, the ship stopped at two ports – Noumea and Mare – where passengers could disembark, visiting tourist attractions and purchasing souvenirs, not to mention yummy pastries and cakes!
After returning to Sydney, the group went on a short bus tour around Sydney and environs, returning to Sydney airport for the trip home, after a wonderful holiday.
