Brisbane

 Catching a flight later in the day just gave Graham more time to stress. He had covered the car the day before but the cover blew off in the rain and wind overnight, so he spent ages (unsuccessfully) trying to devise a way to keep it on. Then when he went to get his handy black bag the strap was missing so more time was spent looking for that. Eventually he used an alternative bag and we were on our way.

The flight was uneventful, landing through a few bumps after lunch and a movie. We took the train to Central station, which was a lot bigger than we had thought, so it took us a while to get out and pointing in the right direction for our hotel. It took a while to get there as we hadn't counted on carrying duty-free bourbon and perfume, but we made it. The hotel room was very small but we had a lovely meal at the restaurant downstairs.

Next morning we went exploring and found the river wasn't too far away. We walked across a pedestrian/cycle bridge to the greener side.
This is a swimming pool right by the river.
And this is the river walk.
