Arrived in Brisbane at lunch time and munched out in McDonalds. Made our way to Hopes apartment, which was only 10mins outa the city on the glider.
Used our GO cards again which we got last year at Natalies. Just spent the day wandering the shops of queen street mall. Then back to Hopes to get ready for dinner and musical bingo at The Boundary. So nice to see Hope again :)

Up the next day to meet Natalie, Keelan and baby Lucas. Spent the day on Southbank, by lagoon and a wee trip into the city. Natalie is a super mummy and really appreciated her coming all that way to see us. Lucas is such a good baby too. Headed back to Hopes to get packed up and sort out the hire car, before making the 20min hilly walk to the backpackers to get our airport lift. The driver was a 70year old who had left Ireland at age 4, and told us all about his life and how proud he was to be Irish. Funny funny man. Then into the airport, and get extra leg room woo hoo.
