We're liking Brisbane a lot. It's more cosmopolitan than we’d expected; blessed with plenty of green open spaces, great shops (so I finally manage to replace my camera) and a fair quota of decent bars.
It’s in one of these where we start the day, enjoying a showing of yesterday’s Portsmouth v Newcastle game. And 3-0 to the Toon puts me in a marvelous mood for the rest of the day.
In the evening we visit a part of the city that reminds us a lot of the South Bank back home. Little wonder really, as the area sits alongside the river, has a string of theatres, cinemas, bars etc. and even a floodlit Ferris wheel. This is considerably smaller than the London Eye but still high enough to give Wend the willies.
Later, we find out what the neighbourhood's called...The South Bank.
Obviously.
