These guys get their own post, they were so cute! I loved how they grabbed our hands with their little paws to eat. They were really lazy too, most of them waited for us to come to them.
There was only one male in the pen and you could definitely tell by his biceps :)
I was really looking forward to the zoo. We started our morning by holding a koala then went to the Crocoseum to watch a great reptile show. Crocs can jump almost their whole body length out of the water, so you are never safe next to or hanging out over the water :)
I guess this will have to be another series of posts because I am having a hard time narrowing the pictures down.
Brisbane had gorgeous churches! The first few pictures are of St. John’s Cathedral. It took 100 years to build and was just completed this year. Stunning architecture.
We ended our day on the South Bank which had a nice view of the city along the river.
The garden shots are from Roma Street Parkland. I could have spent a lot more time winding through the gorgeous landscaped gardens, water features and art sculptures.
The second to last photo is The Old Windmill which is the oldest surviving building in Queensland, built in 1828 by convicts of course :)
We started our Saturday morning with a walk through the Brisbane Botanic Gardens. They were pretty though not as impressive as Sydney’s.
The downtown had a mixture of old and new, very cool city. Again I took lots of pictures that day so I have to break them up :)
We continued the drive along the beautiful Gold Coast stopping at two beach towns, Byron Bay & Surfer’s Paradise, on our way to our hotel in Brisbane.
We saw some kangaroos grazing off the highway so we pulled off and snapped a few photos.
