The Whybrew's: They Came, They Saw, They Continue to Conquer!

We had the fun of showing "our" city to our good friends Lyle, Micky and Kelly. They arrived on Wednesday morning at 6 am, well their plane did, but they didn't make it through the Customs and Immigration lines until 8 am. Home from the airport to stow their luggage, a freshen up, quick breakfast then off to explore Brissy (and to keep their eyes open until 8 or 9 pm). I promised that I'd keep them within 30 - 45 minutes from our house so that if they just couldn't keep their eyes open any longer, they could take a power nap......I'm a kind-hearted dictator! We took them to Queen Street Mall, a park on the east side of the CBD for photo ops, various spots in between (including we lived there and there and there LOL). The weather was quite windy and cold, so we called it a day and besides we were running out of sunlight as happens in Queensland in the winter.

Thursday, found us giving them a tour of the girls' school. It ended up being most of the day! Lots to see and we even spoke to two of Audrey's teachers. The end of the afternoon was a picnic at Rocks Riverside Park. We spotted a kangaroo (my first ever, outside of a "zoo") and a kookaburra!!

Our biggest day was going to Australia Zoo in Beerwah and seeing the Glass House Mountains! The weather was perfect!!!!

The Whybrew's departed Brisbane for their trek out to Ayer's Rock on Sunday. Then back to Sydney (on Wednesday) for their final adventures in Australia. I can't wait to hear what all they have to report about!!
