January 6, 2012 BRISBANE/CAIRNS

This morning we did a trek up the Coot-tha Mountain. In my personal opinion, the actual trek in NOT worth it. You basically walk up the side of a road the entire way up so there isn’t much beauty in that. No trails, no animal noises, just cars and unnecessary exercise. I would suggest just taking a bus to the top and eat lunch or breakfast at the cafe and taking pictures from the lookout. After we rested and rehydrated, Ben, Stuart, Patrick, and I went on a bus back to Woolloongabba which the name of the part of Brisbane where our apartments were located. We packed and headed to the airport for our free weekend!!! We decided as a group to go to Cairns and go snorkeling on the Great Barrier Reef. When we arrived we took a cab to Koala Court, the apartments we were staying for the next two nights. We decided to go to the grocery store and purchase a nice seafood dinner for the four of us. Let me just say it was the best dinner ever. 


Shrimp, fish, calamari, mussels, toasted baguette, roasted peppers, asparagus, rice, and of course some wine :) Then we watched a movie and headed to sleep early for our day of snorkeling on the reef! I’m extremely excited about it! Goodnight blokes.
