We stopped at Brisbane for a day and not knowing what to expect found it was a city after having been staying at small beach resorts since Cairns. After a curry and sunset from the backpackers hostel - where we were given a 8 person bunked room to ourselves and yes we pushed them together and slept on the top bunk - we headed out to paint the town red or have a walk around as others might call it! We went on a ferry ride and walked down the main street queen street mall where we went souvenir shopping! After a night on the Starbucks we headed back to the bunkbeds! The next morning we headed out early after a cheap and cheerful breakfast at the hostel - the food was OK especially after we almost got away without paying for it! Our first stop the Suncorp Stadium where the Aussie footballers reside. Then we went for a walk through south bank park and looked out for a chocolate bar the receptionist at the hostel recommended! Feeling cocky we ordered chocolate everything - milkshakes, Martin had a sundae with. I SCREAM ICECREAM and me chocolate banana crepes.... well I like chocolate more than your average superhero but even this was too much and after a few bites we were both feeling sick! Martin wanted to feel undefeated but regretting this later finished the whole meal and then admitting he wanted to sit in a shower crying! Another short walk and it was time for us to leave to adventure elsewhere far far away from the chocolate bar!
