Welcome to my travel blog. We are occasional cruisers, usually with the aim of travelling at least once each year.

 Previously I have published each cruise with a separate blog. I have now decided to combine them all in a single location. This blogs primary purpose is to keep a summary of our cruises for ourselves.
The Brisbane ship tab is a list of upcoming ships into Brisbane for the ship watcher enthusiast. The photo tab are cruise ship photos. World cruise blog tab has links to follow, making it easier if you access the blog by a mobile device and can't see my reading list on the right.

Noumea, New Caledonia 9th December 2015

We were right on time, 3pm, for our arrival in Noumea. Coming into the harbour, the Carnival Legend was docked at the industrial wharf, where we docked at the cruise terminal. We were greeted by an indigenous dancing and singing group.

Departing the terminal we walked down to the World War II museum, about 5-10 minutes. It wasn't easy to find and we nearly walked straight past it. It only cost us 200 francs each, with no charge for my son. We spent about an hour there which was perfect as they closed at 5pm.

From there we walked down past the Institute Pasteur and the hospital.



And finally to the central park area where the tourist information centre had a free wifi.
