Brisbane and Surfer's Paradise,QLD, Australia

It was my roommates 21st Birthday, and as part of the Birthday Hoopla, we went to Brisbane on Friday. We reserved a day with a place called River Life Adventure Company to go Kayaking on the Brisbane River, and then Rock Climbing on Kangaroo Point. After our bus was late, we missed our train and had to call a Taxi, we made it to the city a little later then expected. But in true Aussie fashion our guide said "no wah-ries" and suited us up in life jackets for a sunny, relaxing kayak on the river.


After our kayak, Nova and Molly jumped in for a swim, and then we had some lunch together. When we returned to River Life we grabbed a helmet and a harness and had a lesson in rock climbing.


We climbed until dusk, and then hopped a ferry back to where we would find the train station. It was a long day, and it ended in blisters and bruises, but it was fun!


Then on Saturday night, we had cake and ice cream with the gang

and headed to Surfer's Paradise for dinner and the night life! We started at a lovely italian restaurant, where we had a great meal and confused waitresses.


Then we spent the evening in Melba's bar, and an Irish Pub celebrating Nova's 21st year of life! All in all it was an excellent evening with wonderful people and lot's of dancing!!
