Wrong time of the year for the ports that were chosen. This ship had been in dry dock in Singapore and was not ready when the cruise began. The monsoon season was in full swing and several ports had to be missed or changed and excursions altered.

Apart from the absolutely terrible embarkation process the circumnavigation of Australia was excellent.
