We left surfers paradise on the bus to Brisbane and arrived pretty late due to traffic :-( the next day we decided to go for a wonder around Brisbane. Walking through th city, over the bridge to the south bank. Its really pretty. We walked along the bank through the lovely gardens, took some silly pictures jumping in the flowers and then grabbed an icecream and sat on the grass bank near the lagoon. There isnt a beach in Brisi so there is a man made lagoon which seemed to be proving popular with locals and travellers, though it was bank holiday monday so maybe thats why is was busy. We had a great day for it! Headed back to the hostel and got ready for our night out on the town. We'd been told Brisbane was a fab night out, though we only made it to the backpackers bar underneath our hostel.......no surprises there! ha! It was a true girls night out. We got the drinks in ( the drinks we get 3 free of just for staying at the hostel) and started playing some drinking games.......The manager came over and handedus lots of free drink vouchers, then insisted he would buy us all a drink too! We were all in for a good night here! All entering into the pool competition to try and win the $50 note and Jet managed to get through to the final! Wooooo! She was against a guy who was pretty good so us girls went on our mission - distraction at all costs! IT WORKED! She won! Men - pah! so easily distracted! So to the bar it was for a round of jagabombs with the winnings - of course! By now we still hadnt spent a penny and lots of vouchers still in tow! We had such a giggle with just us girlies. Clearly i had waaaaaay too much to drink when i agreed to join in the dance competition though it was a good idea because I WON! Yes, another $50 under the belt and plenty more drinks for us girls! Unfortunately there are many pictures and videos of this dance competition that im not sure I will live down for a very long time! ha! We rounded the night off with a mcdonalds, this is where I discovered I had my phone stolen when a strange man called my friend Katie and said he had my phone. He then prioceeded to call other family members and friends and scared them too! He was trying to get me to meet him in all different places - weirdo! Luckily enough we figured out his game and just reported the phone being stolen to the police and had to buy a new one :-( I was not impressed! At all! Oh well!
We only had a couple of days in Brisbane, short but sweet and lots of fun! Onto Noosa!
