Dreamworld

Today Koboshi went to Dreamworld to visit his dad who has been working there on Sundays for Big Brother.






He also got to meet some of the evicted Big Brother House mates - he wasn't starstruck at all



The Big Brother Studios with people lining up to get their photo taken with the house mates. K is down there making sure everyone behaves...




Meeting the wildlife. He liked the kangaroos a lot



Despite looking very serious - we had a great time!!!

Day-to-day stuff

Koboshi is being very helpful with the shopping




Visiting Grandma and having a bit of a play in her backyard



Getting stuck into a teething rusk



Yup, we're still "worming" backwards and we're still getting stuck...

Having a bath in his duck



Having a bit of a chat with Sven and taking Sven for a walk

Warwick - Stanthorpe - Wallangarra

For the last week of K's holiday we decided to head inland to the coldest place in Queensland - Stanthorpe - where it regularly gets below zero in winter.


Strapped in and ready to go for another road trip - 10 mins later, fast asleep he peaked too early.



Driving inland towards the Great Dividing Range.



Driving over the Great dividing Range through Cunningham's Gap - the lush rainforest on the top of the range makes way to a dry, flat landscape.




Warwick is the major town in this part of Queensland and the perfect place to stop for breakfast.



After breakfast continuing our journey from Warwick to Stanthorpe, only another 59km.



Walking the streets of Stanthorpe - it was freezing!


Since we came this far it was only another 60km to the New South Wales/Queensland border so we decided to press on.


On the road to Wallangarra - the border town.





Crossing the southern border of Queensland at Wallangarra for a quick stop in New South Wales





Koboshi wasn't terribly impressed...





Tracks to nowhere




The Queensland - New South Wales Border at Wallangarra trainstation. The border runs across the platform so half the station is build in Queensland style for our narrow gauge and the other half has New South Wales architecture and has the wide gauge tracks.





Doing some more border crossing




Back on the road, homewards bound with some bush fires in the mountains.





What a trip! Almost 7 hours on the road... Koboshi proved to be the perfect little traveller.

Around Brisbane

K had 2 weeks off for winter holidays so we spent a day around Brisbane.

Koboshi knows how to take it easy and travel in style.

First we made a quick stop to K's work place, Koboshi enjoys being in the office.





Our next stop was Brisbane's new cruise ship terminal. Unfortunately no big ships today.



After time in the car we thought about lunch. We went to the iconic Breakfast Creek hotel which is famous for its steaks.






Lunch at the Breakfast Creek Hotel - not a place for vegetarians!!
