Leaving the wharf



During school holidays, we went to Southbank to catch a ferry to Bretts Wharf and walked about 300 meters to the Portside Wharf to see the 'big boat'. It was exciting for the children to see her and to introduce it to Ethan so he doesn't get scared once he stepped on her soon for our island holiday.

About 2 pm, a very loud sound of the horn signalling the start of sail away, and people made the countdown. It was a very festive mood for everyone on boat as well as the people in the viewing deck. Some people had colourful streamer near the front side of the boat and the rear end.
We waved goodbye to the people who were on the boat and watched the boat leave the wharf.

Photos below are inside the citycat ferry along the Brisbane river going back to station 1, Southbank.

That would be very memorable for the kids. Cora, di masakit ang botox, I'll go for another one soon dun sa gilid ng eyes na may wrinkles when I squint.
Hugs to your beautiful kids.
