photos from Brisbane






So this is a sample from Brisbane... a lovely city. Lots of green spaces and old buildings... a nice place to spend a few days.
the photos are of the old Treasury building which is now the Casino in Brisbane.
the city photo is from the Southbank Parklands (which was where the Expo 88 was held)
the belt buckle had BHP on it so I thought that was neat. It was in the Queensland Museum in the mining section.
The fire "cycle" was an original response vehicle before vehicles were invented. They hauled the water and the hoses on the 4 bikes.
the last photo is the Citycat ferry, that I got a free ride on from the hop on hop off bus.

The pictures are awesome! Love the buckle. I think you should get the specs on that bike and build one for you firefighters here. Just think of all the fuel you would save.
I love reading your comments. Keep it up.
