The cruise ship docked at the Hamilton wharf here in Brisbane at 6am. I had been up watching our progress across the bay and up the river on an off since 2am. Consequently I am quite tired now. Both Jo and I have a kind of reverse motion sickness. We constantly feel like we are still swaying. I wonder how long that feeling takes to go away.

The disembarkation process was, like everything else on the cruise, very organised. Passengers were sent off in pre-arranged groups. Amazingly Jo and I didn't even get checked at customs. A far cry from airport security. We just walked straight out.

I have to say, it is good to be home. The cruise has been very relaxing but I am quite glad to be back on solid ground.
