We left Brisbane after 3 days which to be honest wasn't really enough time to see a city as big as that. Me and Cat visited some of her family friends on our last night who cooked us a fab meal at their lovely house and sat around their pool which overlooked the city. Unfortunately, the weather seems to have turned on us since we got to Brisbane and we've had a lot of cloud, a lot of humidity and quite a few thunder storms!!!
