We made our way to Brisbane, longing the coast keeping the ocean on our left as our friend Adrien told us stopping for surfing break. As till now we saw only dead Kangaroos on the road, we decided to see some for real so we went to the zoo (also to show to my nephew Gaspard that there is a lot of other animals than elephant in Africa). When we arrived, for sure we were happy to see Kangaroo, Koalas, Dingo, Wallaby but the sadness of some of them touch us also. In same time, we knew what we were going to see. After that we went with our Van Penelope to Brisbane and misunderstanding a parking sign, we went to visit Brisbane. A city full of skyscraper which a good contrast with our wild Fraser adventure. The only issue was to not find Penelope when we came back, she was towed and she gave us a little head hick in our budget to take her back. As we were not in the mood to spend too much money, we just drive us to Surfer paradise before the night fall. There one more time, it was absolutely not what we were expecting: a forest of skyscraper near the beach: Not really what we could call surfer paradise...
We spent the night there quietly sleeping almost 12 hours in a raw!!!
