Brisbane's Homestead

... drink wine in Mendoza, carnival with Guto in Brazil, surf the longest left in the world in Peru, plus hike the mysterious Inka Trail to Muchu Pichu, sample the specialties of Bolivia, and finally - after 3 months on the south American roads - we'll call it a day.

Foods, smells, sights and sounds await. It's going to be great! I wonder what we'll find.. ? Stay tuned and we'll fill you in!

... are good, coast line is pretty, miles and miles of white sand. Beautiful scenery which is ever changing. We have lost the concept of rush hour and are only used to 'pootaling' along listening to the hits of the 70's (Max's latest buy - still no Dolly!!) Additional information; you know what happens when 'all girls are together' we get in sink, well the bloody sat nav has joined in!! Talk about pre-menstrual, She had a ***** of a day yesterday,if ...

... on the way and Nick took on the Cheeseburger challenge (eating one in two bites) and succeeded! The next day it rained like I've never seen before... torrential downpour all day long! Me and Nick decided it was a good day to go to the cinema. We saw The Uninvited which was an American remake of a Korean film I've already seen (Tale of two sisters) but I still didn't see the ending coming! It wasn't as scary as the Korean film but it still had me clutching Nick's arm and ...

Sie kommt übrigens aus MAGDEBURG! Was ist das für ein Zufall??? Kein Mensch hi** kommt aus ...

... not easy as we had to walk under the expressway and via carparks to find it. However we managed and crossed the river to South Bank 2 pier. There is a Riverside cafe which was only just open at 11.30am so we could have our first beer of the day. The walk along the Southbank is the best bit of Brisbane. We passed the Natural history museum which has huge dolphin sculptures hanging from the ceiling of ehich would otherwise be a boring walk thro a concrete passage. Crossing the ...

... out onto a steep drop, and as we hit the bottom with a thud were blasted with water. As the tube came to a stop, Lorna was missing from the front! She had been flung forwards about another 10 yards and landed flat in the water on her backside. It was hilarious to see - although I'm not sure Lorna agreed with that! We left the park about 4ish as we had to get back to the ...
