BRISBANE AIRPORT - BIG ,MODERN AND SPACIOUS

 Brisbane airport is amazing for its design. There is plenty of day light from the big windows which feels like being outdoors.

 The design of this airport makes it comfortable and pleasant for travelers.The trees inside the airport waiting area is a clever way to make the airport inviting. Plenty of seats for all and lots of shops.

 

Interesting art work and displays makes the airport interesting.

This is an airport that I will be happy to go to early.

Free Brisbane Ferry - CityHopper

 Brisbane is an interesting city with so much to see and do. One fun thing to do which is for free is to explore the Brisbane river by taking the free ferry, CityHopper. This ferry has several stops along the river. Both locals and tourists use this ferry daily. The CityHopper pick up and drop off points are along the Brisbane river. 

Brisbane river is just across this road (William Street). 

 

The road in front of the building is William Street. Cross William Street at the traffic light and turn left. Walk along the path and soon you will see stairs that lead to the river, where you can take the CityHopper.

Follow the arrow and you will see stairs leading down to the ferry pick up point.

The hand rail along this walk path will lead you to the stairs, towards the Brisbane River.

The red ferry is the free ferry. The platform sways a bit when the ferry arrives or when the water moves faster.

This gate is closed when the ferry leaves.

This blue ferry goes futher and you have to pay for it.

One needs to have a "go card" which can be purchased at news stands and 7-11 stores in Brisbane.

The ferry has plenty of space and seats. There are seats on the upper deck to enjoy the beautiful view along the river.
