Mt Coot-tha

Chad had the day off work so off on an adventure it is was. We had a blast. We did the botanic gardens, saw the bonsai trees and went for an uphill hike to get to the lookout point. We found our own trail to the falls and saw aboriginal art.

Justine and Ashley's Sunday Adventure.

Justine was in town and we took Brisbane by storm together. Watch out Thailand, as that is Justine's next destination. Our day started off on the City Cat. On Queen's street we found a flea market. They just kept setting up and appearing. We ventured around Queen's street and down to Southbank. Spent sometime reading and admiring the flowers. The pictures say it all.

Southbank

Yesterday consisted of another trip to the farmer's market. Three girls and a Chad have to eat!!! Then heading to Southbank to enjoy the sun. Chad and Kristen went on a sexy date last night. So Justine and I went on a sexy date. I think ours was far sexier, we climbed a tree and walked Southbank under the flowers and walked the river. Before, mom you will be proud, coming home to repack our bags. We got packing cells on killer sale.

Giant Christmas Tree

Brisbane lite a giant Christmas tree on Friday night with lots of festivities. We just caught the tail end of it on the way home from the coast. Doesn't feel too Christmasy when wearing bathing suits and sun bathing!! Street windows are covered in fake snow and Santa still wears a winter suit

The Gold Coast

Chad, Kristen, Justine and I headed up to the Gold Coast on Friday. It was a very windy day, but the water was gorgeous and we had a ton of fun!!

Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary

So, I just realized that I haven't put some pictures or any stories up lately. So here is a quick post before I head out for the day. Last weekend, Chad, Kristen and I went to lone pine koala sanctuary. We fed the kangaroos and I held a koala. So much fun!! Very soft and cuddly. There were Tasmanian devils and a platypus who celebrated his 13th birthday that weekend. And Emus and wombats. Lots of wild turkeys and bats that could pick me up and carry me away. Australian birds, oh my.
