Day 25, Noumea, New Caledonia

At pier-side, the day started with a welcome dance and music performed by native dancers and singers.

We had a great day exploring this magnificent place. Sunny beaches, beautiful French colonial buildings and modern architecture. Narrow streets reminiscent of a small French town. Lots of commemorative statues and memorable sites.

To end this marvelous day, the ship hired local dancers to put on a Polynesian show. It was spectacular.
