We headed over to Brisbane for a few days to visit my family
in Brisbane. We had such an incredible time visiting my Uncle Emmett & Aunt
Orla and were blown away by the hospitality of my cousins. We stayed with Kevin
and Jill Martin (Kevin is my Mom’s 1st cousin) and his four children
Erin-Marie, Shaeleen, Patrick and Bridget.
Our first day was spent at the Australia Zoo (Steve Irwin’s)
with Kevin, Patrick and Shaeleen. We saw some spectacular Aussie Animals as
well as the Croc Show that was hosted by Steve Irwin’s wife Terri, Bindi and
Robert. It was slightly cheesy in some parts but overall it was a very
entertaining show.
We then went to see Kondalilla Falls with Patrick and Kevin.
It was a very easy hike but the falls were beautiful and the views of the
Glasshouse Mountains were stunning.
Neal did some sailing with Kevin and I had a lovely brunch
and shopping day with Jill, Patrick, Shaeleen and Orla. We then celebrated New
Years at Fridays on South Bank with views of the Storey Bridge with Erin-Marie,
Shaeleen, Patrick and Bridget. Thanks for ringing in 2014 with us, we had so
much fun.
New Years Day was spent having a delicious Aussie BBQ up in
the Glasshouse Mountains at Jill’s sister’s house. It was so nice to be
included with all of her family too.
We had such a wonderful time getting to spend time with my
family. Thank you again for having us!
Laura & Neal
