As we enjoyed Southbank so much we decided we just had to take Jessica while she was visiting !
Once more we headed out on the Sunday as this is when the markets are held there and the afternoon Music on the Green. Much to our surprise there was a bonus the monthly speciality art and craft markets were on as well.
This time we drove and parked under the Cultural Centre at Southbank for $15, a great solution to Brisbane's expensive train service !
We spent the morning walking around Southbank and browsing through the markets.
It was a very special occasion when we stopped to speak with Charmaine of Diva Head Wraps who offered to place a wrap on Jessica's head. Once completed she asked Jess for a photo and got more than she bargained for as Jess played up to the camera ... A typical drama/ musical theatre student ! But the even more than that, George wanted to join in the dance poses ... The dancer and showman in him was yet to surface as Charmaine insisted he had his hair 'wrapped' before she would take a photo. So much to her delight he agreed. Once they both were donned with a Diva Wrap the fun began much to the joy of Charmaine. What a fun time they both had, as well as the crowd that stopped to watch the shenanigans.
After grabbing a bite to eat we headed down to the wharf to catch the rivercat. This took us on a 2 hour journey up and down the Brisbane River stopping at each wharf.
Overall we had a wonderful day full of surprises !
