Day 180: ...and a tai chi step...
And jump: to Sunday. We've been anticipating this day for a little while. The tai chi group was set to catch the little river ferry between parks, stop off, do a tai chi set and be on our way...from New Farm all the way around to South Bank.
Now this is a little adventure I've not undertaken before and like a typical city resident, unlike our city visitors, I'd never thought to do so. The city reach of our Brisbane River is a lovely, intriguing and interesting place from 'on the river'. I only had the fruit phone with me today but I've already determined to head back with the big cam, get on and off more often and capture a bit of a river story...one day.
Back to today. A perfect blue sky day but a strong gusty wind at times. Apart from blowing out a couple of my more 'delicate' moves, it was a lot of fun. A lot of bystanders watched with some interest (or something...?) and we were done by 2.30ish.

| Waterfront Place, bluesky (I once worked on the 36th floor here) |

| Story Bridge, bluesky (and rule-breaking sun, photographically-speaking) |

| Follow me! Seagulls on the pool, South Bank |
 |
| Sunday Cool Cats: The Hanlon Brothers on the Green and the CityCat on the river |
 |
| End of the Arbor Walk: Bougainvillea and Somerville House, South Brisbane |
That meant another chance for another stroll along South Bank through to the Mater Hospital end, a repeat of yesterday but with about two hours difference...
...and what a difference an hour or two can make to a Brisbane afternoon's light. Left me feeling with a bit of a hop, skip and jump in my step.
