4th November - Brisbane still...

We are still in the Brisbane area, timing the sport badly as there is nothing on at the Gabba at the moment, unlike in a months time. Also, we exhausted all the free stuff to do in Brisbane in one morning as everything was shut or being relocated. The botanic gardens were good and we got a picture of Sarah practicing for House of Flying Daggers 2.

Then we went to numerous museums, libraries and art galleries all to be found with either nothing in them or shut. Damnit. Another good thing was the free bus around the city, london should get some of those bad boys.

One of the good things we had thrust on us was an empty 4 bedroom dorm. So we got a couple of good nights sleep, well kind of. As easy as it is sleeping in a 400 person hostel coming home drunk and noisy.

We also got to see the Australian Pop Idol winner from a while back, Guy Sebastian who looks like a thunderbird, do a gig in the shopping plaza. He was a bit of a weirdo with an afro of sorts. We went to a nearby bar to have a beer whilst listening and then forgot he was on so had no idea how good or bad he was.

We hired a car instead of getting the bus as it was about the same cost, so we got us a Hyundai Getz 1.6, a sporty little number that has been to the red line and back.
Southwards again soon
