Back in Brisbane and enjoying the beautiful 'Winter' weather. My days are spent in sleeveless shirts and flip flops (or thongs, but not the kind you are picturing). A couple of days back, Simon and I took a drive down to Moreton Bay and had fish and chips overlooking the water, followed by a walk down Shorncliffe Pier.
Yesterday, I ventured into the city for some long overdue shopping! I didn't end up coming home with much, but it was still a fun outing. In addition to hitting the stores, I walked to the Gallery of Modern Art, where I unfortunately missed the Valentino Retrospective (celebrating the past, present and future of his work) by a mere two days. So bummed by this! I decided to check out the GoMA anyway and was even able to peek over the curtains from the second floor to see a little bit of the Valentino exhibit below.
I then wandered down to the Southbank Parklands and had lunch overlooking the river, a fake beach and Brisbane's version of the London Eye.

Watch out, world! Tents are going up for Brisbane Fashion Week
Lovely city of Brisbane
I successfully navigated the train system home in the afternoon, which made this 'clueless' American feel pretty darn good about herself!
