As usual, I went to the area that I had never been to for exploring, I found her near the Circular quay in Sydney. this was my third or fourth time to be here, I was really lucky to meet her, I guess she wouldn't berth there for more than two days.
和往常一樣，前往雪梨尚未去過的區域探索，在雪梨 Circular quay 發現了她。這是我第三次還是第四次到這裡，運氣真不錯讓我發現了她，我猜她在這裡停泊的時間應該不會超過兩天。

The Millennium
千禧號


She is the biggest ship I've ever seen in my whole life, I only saw the ship - Titanic in the movie, this giant and artificial stuff always attracts me, makes me feel curious. I intentionally searched for her information, she is bigger than the Titanic. Besides all the four ships belonging to the "Star Cruises"" are small then she.
她是我有生以來見過最大的船隻，在這之前只看過鐵達尼號電影裡的鐵達尼號，這種人為龐然大物都會引起我的注意、好奇。特別去查了一下她的資料，她比鐵達尼號還要大隻。另外麗星郵輪的四艘船噸位都比她小。

She is extremely spectacular. Actually my plan was to another scenes, just got past the Circular quay and glimpsed at her. I cannot help taking some pictures of her, and went to the Overseas passenger terminal which was just beside the Millennium to collect some short distance photos. I wasn't contentd with only these pictures, even walked for a couple of minutes to the Sydney harbour bridge, I expected to see all the facilitis on the roof of the ship via the height of the bridge, however I couldn't see clear because of the far distance.
她真的很壯觀。當天的行程其實是要去別的地方，只是剛好經過。忍不住停了下來拍照，還特地跑到 Overseas passenger terminal 收集了不少照片。光是這些還無法滿足我，我還走了一段路爬上了 Sydney harbour bridge，希望能藉由橋的高度看到船隻頂層的設施，只是距離太遠沒法看的很清楚。

I found some words on the ship, and searched some information about her using the God Google, finally I indeed got some useful information. The Millennium provides Internet Cafe, I guess she uses the satellite to connect to the Internet (It goes without saying)、Conservatory、Library、AquaSPA。Such a elegant service, a nobody like me without much money wouldn't like to spend money on the cruise of the Millennium. There are three kinds of tickets, it costs 2,919 (Inside), 3,529 (Ocean view), 9,169 (Ensuite) AUD individually.
替她拍照的時候，看到船身上有名字，特別照了下來，利用 Google 大神果然找到她的相關資料。船上有提供網路咖啡吧，我猜她是透過衛星網路和網際網路連結。有溫室、圖書館、SPA。那麼高級的享受，我這種市井小民還真的捨不得花錢登船旅遊。票價有三種等級，十五天要價分別是2,919（室內）、3,529（海景）、套房更高達9,169 澳幣。
