Brisbane Update :)

Life here in BrisVegas continues to go well. I wanted to post what else I have been up to here other than working.

There is a lovely park with a ton of different rose bushes just a short walk from my hostel. On the weekends the crowd from the hostel usually finds their way down to the park for beers and soccer. But one particular sunny day my friends Peter, Mic and I went and hoped on the City Cat Ferry, which transports people around Brisbane via the Brisbane River which cuts the city in two. So the three of us had a fun day in the sun on the ferry and stopping to smell the roses!
















I went to the mountains outside the city for work for a week. This was awesome as the views were spectacular and I was in a rain forest! Here are some pics of the views from where I worked!




















My birthday has come and gone as they tend to do and I am officially a quarter century! For my birthday I took myself to see the Queensland Orchestra play what they called "The Pink Floyd Experience"! It was definitely cool. There was a band in front of the orchestra, complete with singers. It was amazing hearing the orchestra play everything.
