In honour of her namesake, the original Love Boat, Pacific Princess also sported a 4-meter high red heart painted on her funnel and was decked out with heart flags.

 

She was given special permission to play a ship’s horn rendition of the Love Boat theme as she passed the Sydney Opera House before docking at the White Bay Cruise Terminal.

 

Pacific Princess is visiting Sydney as part of a 111-night world voyage that departed Los Angeles on January 23.

 

She sails for Cairns at 10 p.m. on Sunday.
