Brisbane

After a really short night in the bus (1:25am to 6:05am...) we arrived in Brisbane. A friend I met in McGill University (Montreal, Canada) lives here, and has been really kind to come to the city before going to work to pick up our bags! It was more comfortable for us to visit!

After some breakfast and shopping, we went up on the City Hall clock tower. It was the first time I see a clock tower from the inside. Then we walked around the city center and crossed the Victoria Bridge and visited two really nice and interesting museums. Then we walked along the river on South Bank: it's a really nice area built after an exposition in 1988 (if I'm not wrong). You can find a Nepalese Pagoda as well as a really beautiful lagoon, where a lot of people were having fun! There was also a small market that we visited.

Our walk ended with the Botanical Gardens. A few trees were really interesting but we felt frustrated about some lack of signs and information about the vegetation.

Tonight is Aussie BBQ with our friend's friends! Yummy!
