Arrived in Brisbane

We have finally landed!!! Knackered or what!?!? It is overcast and drizzling but it is 30'C going to have a relaxing day and start getting things sorted tomorrow! I hope the sun is out or Ewan is in trouble! Missing my sister and friends and Mom and Dad! Ewan is laughing at me cause I keep getting tearful! I expect sympathy!!! I have some Cadburys Dairy Milk chocolate to help though! Might keep me happy for a few minutes!

Brisbane - Finally.....

Well finally we arrived in Brisbane... Flight took about 7 hours and as we were only going 2 hours ahead, no real jet lag. We arrived in the George Williams hotel about 8.30pm after getting a 35 dollar taxi ride from the airport. Hungry, we went in search of food and got a Hungry Jacks (Burger King to all you lot back home). On our 1st full day in Brisbane we set about getting all the important stuff organised - So we now have a bank account with Bank West, got our visa stamped on our passpor...

The Australian journey ends in Brisbane

... and its diverse inhabitants and I've grown to love it.

As I officially said goodbye to camping on this trip, I offered all my leftovers to other campers, including a jeans and a shaver (got a new one though..).

Then I passed by the Gold Coast today and I would not recommend anybody ...

Farewell Australia!

... of four. :-)
Alas, it was goodbye, and soon it was time for me to go down the escalator away from them all and make my way to the boarding gate.
It was a stark contrast from the tears and heartbreaking last words, when i landed in Auckland NZ to a pre-school painted sign with my name on it (dry pasta included!), with a shriek and a skip to the open arms of my tanz!

Bad Taste Party

... Wir haben nur zuhause "rumgehangen", weil wir beide recht müde waren. War aber trotzdem, wie immer, sehr lustig. Ja und gestern (Donnerstag) habe ich noch die Bad Taste Party vorbereitet, bin dann schnell nach hause gehuscht, habe mich hässlich gemacht und bin wieder zurück zur Party. Was mich geärgert hat, war, dass der Barmanager nichts auf die Reihe bekommen hat. Er hat weder meine Videos gezeigt, noch meine Musik gespielt ...

River Cruise and Down Under Bar

... nehmen und Menschen in der Innenstadt fotografieren. Es ist wirklich wirklich interessant und erstaunlich! Auch wie die Menschen miteinander umgehen. Im Bus beispielsweise stehen Juengere fuer Aeltere sofort auf und Maenner fuer Frauen. Ausserdem lesen alle immer Buecher oder Zeitung und hoeren Musik, wenn wir unterwegs sind. Die Busse sind gewoehnlicherweise voll von "Business Menschen", da Parken in der Innenstadt zu einer Katastrophe wird und auch viel zu teuer ist ...

The best job in the world?

... stroll the white sands, snorkel the reef, take care of "a few minor tasks" -- and report to a global audience via weekly blogs, photo diaries and video updates.

Brisbane

... the pesky meddling kids solve some mysteries. It turned out that they had sloped off to go round and round on the Lethal Weapon ride. It was a suspended roller coaster and went at 80km per hour. Fes was pretending to be Mel Gibson and RT was being Danny Glover and when they finally came back he kept muttering ' I'm too old for all this s**t!' and he & Fes would fall about laughing. I wonder about those two sometimes! We got back to the house to fin that Yoshi (mad ...
