Brisbane!

All aboard the socialites transport known as the OZ Experience bus...Brisbane was next on the agenda for a 2 night stop! Brisbane is the 1st city we have hit along these shores and its refreshing not only because its a nice hip city.
A highly recommended pancake house seemed to be the first point of call after we had checked our bags into the hostel. The pancake house was amazing really as it was within a renovated church..."is this really the place we should be eating"???
At the end of the sweet and sickly meal the boys called for Baz (probably beacuse hes Irish) to gun (see off) a pot of maple syrup for $3...peer pressure strikes again and barry was now on a sugar high!
We were all hoping for a night out similar to that which is supplied by Leeds and we were optimistic hving heard alot about 'the Valley' - a haven for bars and clubs. We never found what we were looking for other than the local backpackers Down under Bar...which we found to be of great entertainment value the next evening!

Invloved were team drinking games. Deytrikh nominating himself to the front before anyone could raise a hand meant that the red team was quickly introduced with Mike and Charlotte (an english we knew quite well) making up the trio. 3 games of a semi explicit nature began and tied 1-1 with the green team we felt ready to win...unfortunatley this was not the case even though dach and mike put in stirling performances...you should be proud parents of these two young men, and Barrys for that matter has he was shouting morale support from the crowd!

Deytrikg met up with an old school mate he had not seen in 4yrs or so who was studying at university in brisbane which was good...but apart from that very little culture was seen apart from the local nightlife!

The Gold Coast awaites!
