The heat had abated and the temps were only in the 80's, no sign of rain and a nice breeze to boot. So it was out and about. We walked on the over-water walk way down to the Felons Brewery. Then we went further upriver to the Old Botanical Gardens, our former stomping grounds. Here we stopped and had our picnic lunch. The Sunday market was going on so we poked around there and Leslie found a new hat. It is just what she was looking for, a soft cloths covering the back of her head, a removable chin strap and moisture wicking fabric to keep her cool. From the market we walked to the ferry and rode it back to New Farm. Many folks were out on a Sunday enjoying the river.
Big red blooms
In the Kangaroo Point area the river flows in a bit of a canyon with tall bluffs on either side
Ibis in the sky
This man was playing some sort of flute instrument
Pier Magpie Thrush
Felons brewery has a huge complex at the foot of Story Bridge
The bridge leads to the top of the bluffs and the brewery spreads out at river level
Room enough for many hundreds of beer drinkers
The big dig!
Across the river there is a park
A fuzzy little Chikwawa
Very cute
We got some mango icecream
The feet of the ibis are huge
Yes we are talking about your feet
A mightily small net
Not big enough to catch a scooter
On the ferry
Australian pelicans
A large pool complex across the river
Picnicking with the birds
Big shiny buildings
Small older buildings
The new pedestrian bridge
Art on the top of the bluffs
Art at the base of the bluffs
Having a wheelie good time
A smaller size ferry and a huge excursion boat
Several quaint wooden structures on a raised walkway
Electical...not electrical
This is the walkway where we walked along to begin the trip
Three miles into town and a three mile ferry ride back
It has been 2 years and 165 days since we began our Migration
