Botanical Gardens - Brisbane

On Sunday I caught up with Kim Brinkman at South Bank. We took a walk through the market, listened to some street music, and checked out the shops. We then ventured over the bridge to the Botanical Gardens in Brisbane. The most amazing trees and flowers can be found in Australia. My favourite had to be the huge fig trees that would branch straight out for meters and would grow new roots once the branch was getting to heavy. When I saw these trees, the first thing that came to mind was that this would be the perfect spot to build a large tree house and live like the Robertsons. Of course, Kim and I couldn't leave the gardens without climbing at least one tree. So there we were, slowing climbing our way up the giant tree, checking each step and hand grab carefully for spiders or any other type of creepy crawling thing. I also enjoyed my first experience with an Australian delicacy; the Kebab. This is a delicious grilled wrap with either thin slices or chicken, lamb, or both with all the fillings. It was absolutely amazing. Soon after, Kim and I split ways to finish off the day.

Until Tuesday,

Luv Jenn
