Today (2nd August 2014), we drove south for four hours from our home to begin our new life in Brisbane for approximately four months prior to relocating to India for Bruce's job.
Checking into our apartment was great with fantastic energetic reception staff who fulfilled our every need on arrival. Upon entering our room found a lovely hand written note, welcoming us to Brisbane for our relocation & a big pack of Lindt Chocolates.....such a nice touch.
We are staying smack bang in the centre of Brisbane City itself. A very short walk to Central Station where we will catch the train to work each day as of Monday. We purchased our 'go cards' which makes for easy no fuss ticketing each day.
Cracked open a bottle of bubbles to celebrate the move....always a must!
Bruce was accosted in the lift of our apartment block as international celebrity Marcia Hinds & her band are staying in the same complex tonight. The 'groupie' thought Bruce was part of the band.....
We walked about the general area to gather mental recognition of what was around us. Found loads of cafès & restaurants worthy of our sampling I'm sure over the next little while.
Dined at a fabulous Korean restaurant for dinner in Spring Hill.
It's been a big day.....but a very exciting one at that!
We are leaving our home, jobs and family & friends to go on a working life adventure....what we will experience, we do not know....but it will be amazing! Follow us to discover the traveling guru ups & downs.
