Today’s photo is not taken by me. It is a photo of Royal Caribbean International’s ship “Explorer of the Seas” which has just arrived in Australia for the cruising season. She is the largest cruise ship to be based in Australia so far. She is also the ship that my sister and I will be sailing to New Zealand on in February so we’ve been excitedly plotting her course for the last few months.

Born in England in 1957 my family came to Australia in 1966. I grew up in Adelaide, South Australia, where I met and married my husband David. We came together over a mutual love of trains. Both of us worked for the railways for many years, his job was with Australian National Railways, while I spent 12 years working for the STA, later TransAdelaide the Adelaide city transit system. After leaving that job I worked in hospitality until 2008.
We moved to Tasmania in 2002 to live in the beautiful Huon Valley. David passed away in 2015 and I'm here on my own now but I have Cindy the dog and Polly the cat to keep me company.
I currently co-write two Wordpress blogswith my sister Naomi. Our doll blog "Dolls, Dolls, Dolls", and a "Our Other Blog" which is about everything else but with a focus on photographs and places in Tasmania.

I live in Colorado, so all I see are mountains, especially covered in snow this time of the year. The ship is huge, and I wish I was on it. Please enjoy your trip for me too. I hope you don’t get seasick.

I hope I don’t either but modern ships are much more stable in rough seas. I was seasick when we came from England to Australia by sea but that old ship was smaller than our Bass Strait ferry. I’d love to see your mountains though.
