Brisbane, Australia

Brisbane is only around an hour on the bus from the Gold coast so very nearby for our next stop travelling the East coast. A few people we have spoken to did not recommend Brisbane to visit. Most said it was too quiet and nothing to do, however it seems great! It's a small city and more family friendly (which probably doesn't suit a lot of backpackers but suits us just fine) which was a nice change! We are staying in Kangaroo point which has a fantastic view of the Brisbane city skyline. As we walked round this area there were lots of sculptures, people having bbq's with a view and also at least 4 weddings! We went past 4 guys (groomsmen for one wedding) sitting on a wall and had a wee chat with them. They wanted us to take their picture so I did! Safe to say I think they were having a good night lol
