BRISbane

Early start today as we left Sydney to fly to Brisbane. No Hot Cakes for breakfast today.

At Sydney airport Mart got stopped by the security and they asked where he was from.

Mart: “England”
Security guard: “Which part”
Mart: “Bristol”
Security guard: “Ahhh! Bristol Rovers!”
Mart: “Glad you didn’t say Bristol City”
Security guard: “Who?”
Mart: 😁

We arrived in Brisbane nice and early and again managed to bag an early check in at the hotel.

We headed out to “South Bank” which is a little promenade by the river. That’s where the obligatory photo with the Brisbane sign was taken! Just behind the promenade there is a little man-made city beach with lots of locals/tourists in the ‘sea’. There was even a lifeguard.

As we were in a new city today we thought we best visit another bridge. We got the bus to the Story Bridge and took a selfie in front of it.

Later we climbed the City Hall clock tower. I think I am just about mastering my fear of heights. The view of the lit-up city was amazing.

After a day of being proper tourists we finished the day by having a little glass of prosecco...or two!
