Day 544 (Month 18): March 28, 2026 – Adelaide, Australia
The combination of cyclone Norelle tearing up the coast of Australia and disruption of the fuel chain has presented challenges for our Australian itinerary. The captain has had to balance fuel usage with safety, leading to an altered route with several smaller ports being eliminated.
I decided to make lemonade and head inland into the Australian outback. Tomorrow I’ll be jumping on a flight from Adelaide to the famous Uluru (formerly known as Ayers Rock), an iconic Australian monolith with cultural significance for Aboriginal Australians, then rejoining the Odyssey in Perth a week later. I’m being naively optimistic that things may settle down a bit by then. At least the cyclone part.
