  • Scooter Wankers

    After moving in the to city from the suburbs I’ve seriously embraced city living, to the point where I’ve even been using the Lime Scooters. Brisbane is conducting a trial of electric scooters and there are 500 of them randomly scattered in and around the CBD. A 43 year old man on an electric … read more

  • The Lanterns of South Bank

    Now that we live in Cleveland and I work from home, we don't get into Brisbane as much as I'd like, which means that our visits to the South Bank Parklands have become less frequent. No matter the time of year, there's always something happening and great places to relax or have some fun. Last time … read more

  • The Ever-Changing Brisbane Skyline

    Last weekend we went up to Mount Coot-tha. It's been a couple of years since I've been to the lookout so I was interested to see how the skyline might have changed. This time of year is always a good time to visit both the Botanical Gardens at Mount Coot-tha and the lookout. The smattering of purple … read more

  • The Pink House on the River

    When I first started working in the Brisbane CBD and Rachelle worked near Bulimba, I used to drop Rach off at work and then catch the CityCat ferry service in from Bulimba getting off at Riverside in the city.

  • The City in my Wake

    Yesterday I went on the CityCat for the first time in quite a while. I got on at Bulimba and rode it all the way to the last stop at the University of Queensland. In all, the journey takes about an hour. It doesn't seem that long though - it's a great way to get about. I used to travel on the … read more

I was lucky to get the bridge to myself for a brief moment to take this shot. It's a favourite crossing for … read more

    Yesterday myself and Lauren took a trip up to Mount Coo-Tha to take some pics while Rach did some cooking to get ready for the ‘divas’ coming round.We had a quick look around the Botanical Gardens which deserve a much longer stay than what we afforded, before heading up to the scenic … read more
