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.

Brisbane International Cruise terminal
The new Brisbane International Cruise terminal (BICT) has passed the next hurdle. If all goes to plan it should be operational by the 2020 cruise season. 
I'd love to see the old Pinkemba rail line reinstated and extended to the new terminal. It would be great for overseas passengers on transit visits to jump on a train and visit Brisbane. It would also help move passengers on turnaround days as well.
