Trip #4: Brisbane!

Soo… Ok it was really my family’s trip to Brisbane but it felt like I had a mini-vacay too.  My Dad, Nikole (my stepmom), and J (my little bro) came in for a little less than a week and it was great! Unfortunately, the weather wasn’t warm enough to visit one of the beaches on the Gold Coast but we had a good time anyway.

They took J to the Koala Sanctuary and got a chance to experience the CityCat ferry. Nikole looked up some of the best restaurants in the area so we ate pretty good J (nice change from Duch food). I was so glad to have some familiar faces around and spend time with them…it was almost like I was on break from school. J and I also got a chance to spend some much needed quality time together.

We played with his cars and the AFL football I got him, rode on the ferris wheel, ate ice cream, watched the movie Cars, and talked. 

I miss him soooo much when I’m away at school…but that’s what makes our brother-sister time together even better :-)
