What a lovely final day in Brisbane! We have had such a nice fews day here relaxing in such comfort! We went shopping for souvenirs and I had to buy a new bag to carry all the extra stuff I'm purchasing! Caught the train back to the house to save Johnna driving to get us again! We cooked them supper tonight - chicken wrapped in bacon and apple pie for pudding! Great evening, now just chilling on the sofas watching a bit of tv. Off to Byron Bay tomorrow, the pe...

We all enjoyed a lie in today and then a lazy morning with a nice breaky and then lots of clothes washing! This afternoon we visited Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary just outside the city.

We also got to feed lots of sweet kangaroos...emms and I hopped behind one so vicki co...

The aboriginal legend is that this man was promised a young girl to marry, but discovered she had fallen in love with another man so he killed the girl when she jumped in front of her lover who the man was actually trying to kill with his boomerang and the ro...

Terrible night's sleep! Poured with rain all night so a constant pitter patter on the tent and it was absolutely freezing! I was sure there was a dingoe outside my tent but turned out to just be one of the chaps snoring in a neighbouring tent! Up at 6am today, such an uncomfortable night! Woken up at about 5am by the kookaburras laughing in the trees, but greeted by a cooked breakfast and pancakes! We set off to Lake Wabby first thing. A 40 minute walk from the...
