    Cruise day 22:

    We did not get up to much, other than sleeping in, going through Australian 🇦🇺 passport control, afternoon nap and gym.

    I realized again today how much Isabel stresses about passport control. From the minute we received to notice that we had to be in the dining room to go through passport control at a certain time with our Australian immigration forms filled out, she started to worry that we are going to fill in the forms incorrectly .

They stamped our passports and off we went without answering any questions. All the stress for nothing.
