Weekend in Brisbane

This weekend we joined Ila and Matt for a trip to Brisbane. We went Friday after school with the Bus and Train from Noosa to Brisbane, which took us 3 hours and only cost $7. We slept in a backpacker called "The Bunk" and it really was a little bit like a bunker... But we were pretty lucky, because we were upgraded from a 8-shared room in a 4-shared room.

 On the first night we discovered the nightlife of Brisbane and on the next morning, we bought some food and had a brunch in the Botanical Garden.

We soon learned, that the garden can be really dangerous...

                                      

In the afternoon we went to the Queen Street (shopping mall) and to South Bank (public pool and markets). After dinner in Chinatown we went to a BBQ on Kangaroo Point (which was more a little bit of a Botellón as there was only drinks and nothing on the Grill). We enjoyed the Skyline from Brisbane while walking over the Story Bridge.



Today we went to the DFO (Direct Factory Outlet). Which is a huge shopping mall full of outlet-strores, including all the surfing brands like Quicksilver, Roxy, Billabong, Rusty or RipCurl. After some serious shopping we arrived in Noosa pretty exhausted.
