A World Apart

Our second full day in Brisbane was spent in walking around the city, marveling at the sights and sounds.  I was struck by how foreign and yet how similar this place is to the United States.  I was also struck by how big the world is, that there can be such different plants and animals, then after picking up some free Wifi with my I-pod and scanning Facebook, how small the internet can make the world.  Here are some pictures of the crazy plants and animals in Brisbane.  

Perfect jungle gym tree, this draped tree was right in the middle of a park playground.


It is so weird to see ibis' in the city, as common as pigeons. 





These guys hang out all along the river front.

The pelicans here are REALLY weird...
