Milestone - my last post was No. 900!!!
It was interesting sailing out of Brisbane, passing the industrial docks and watching the unloading of cars and containers and seeing the coal and cottonseed mountains.
I was mesmerised by the pilot boats.
The Gateway looms large - we sailed right under her.
Richie Valens!
All new cars - drivers take them off then catch a bus back into the hull to bring the next lot down the blue and white gangway.
I was also really captured by the mechanical unloading of containers; it was really quick and very precise.
Look at all those containers!! Thousands of them.
Bye bye Brisbane, see you in a week.
