Tuesday 8th November

Total blue skies and hot today.
Set off in the morning to “Mount Coot’tha” which is the high ground to the SW of Brisbane which provides stunning views to the city and beyond. Great viewing area with restaurants and cafes.

Irene’s niece, Emma, works in a tower block next to the “Gabba” cricket ground and has access to the Cricketers Club so we went for lunch. Very strict dress code. Men have to wear “pants” and definitely no ” thongs”. Very nice lunch with super views of the ground. No game or practice going on though.

After lunch we got dropped off in the city in the bohemian West End district. Had a coffee in the Gunshot cafe and then walked to the river and visited the Art Gallery before training it back home.
