Beautiful Brisbane!
This country girl has quickly fallen in love with Brisbane. We originally moved to Brisbane with a 5-year plan.....but may stay for good!
You have heard of the tree-change or the sea-change, but we have had a city-change! Having spent my entire life in the country and regional towns, I wanted to experience city living. Melbourne and Sydney were too big and intimidating so we decided on Brisbane........and have not looked back!
Brisbane has everything that we need (and more) but within a short 30-minute drive, we can feel like we are in the country, with national parks, lakes, beaches and mountains within a short day trip.
The photos below show just a few of my favourite things to do in Brisbane:
 |
| Take the Ferry for a trip along the Brisbane River. The ferries run day or night. The City Hopper is free. Get off at every stop along the river and you shall easily fill the day. |
 |
| Take a ghost tour through the city and hear some interesting stories and history. There are several different tours available. |
 |
| Enjoy the view from the Brisbane Wheel, both at night and during the day |
 |
| The River Walk is always very enjoyable. Our little dog likes it too. |
 |
| Enjoy the under bridge art while walking around the city. There are many murals in Brisbane. |
 |
| In October, the jacaranda trees are in bloom and the heritage walk and Brisbane River are even more enjoyable |
 |
| The Story Bridge changes colour to commemorate different events |
 |
| The Story Bridge Climb is very enjoyable at any time. They now have a lean out trust challenge too, for those who want an adrenalin rush! |
 |
| A walk through the city reveals many heritage buildings alongside newer buildings. |
 |
| Shopping at Brisbane Arcade |
Beautiful photos of a beautiful city! Thank you for sharing. All the very best for the challenge!
ReplyDeleteThank you for visiting. And good luck to you too.
DeleteI spent 10 days in Brisbane last fall - er Spring, it was October - with my son, before the fires. We saw some of the 'required' things (The Australia Zoo, for example). We were staying close to the Queensland Museum and got to ride the Wheel of Brisbane. I hope I get to go back one day, because clearly I did not see enough!
ReplyDeleteThank you for visiting. There is so much to see here. Australia Zoo is my "Z" post :)
DeleteOh my I am falling in love with Brisbane - hope some times i get the opportunity to see these places, thanks for the virtual tour.. loving it.
