Our trip: Days 1 to 3

I really enjoyed reading the Girotti's day-by-day recount of their recent trip, especially their visit on day three to Biltmore estates, so I'm going to do a similar series of posts about my trip with Dave to Brisbane and Sydney from 15 - 21 March. I don't have photos for each day though.

Day 1:

We arrived in Brisbane in the afternoon and enjoyed time with my brother, his wife, and their three children. We explored their new house for the first time.

Day 2:

We went shopping, went for a walk, read stories, and played with the children, amongst other things.


Day three: We had a lovely time in Brisbane city. We explored Southbank and the Botanical Gardens across the river.

Dave had never visited Queensland before. The climate in Brisbane reminded him of Durban in South Africa, where he spent several happy years (and even walked around at night safely, amazingly enough) until he came to Australia in 2005. Even the smells in Brisbane brought back memories.

  1. Oh, this will be fun to hear tidbits about your trip each day. I'm sure the Botanical Gardens were so pretty! And having fun with family members is always very special.
