Sat 5 FEB
Packed my bike into the car.
Parked at what I thought was Highgate Hill but turned out to actually be a part of South Brisbane and met a friend outside Sommerville. We rode across the goodwill bridge. As we passed through QUT, I observed signs warning of dire consequences for locking bikes to the river stage fence. This cause me to look around for bike parking which although there was some, looked a bit like a token effort. A pity that they do not make it more welcoming to ride bikes and scooters. Continued riding through the gardens and pasts riverside to the Power House markets.
Locked the bikes to a fence in Newfarm park and entered the markets. Ordered a coffee and calculated at leats a 15 minute wait. Sat on chairs at 'Mary Mays' and looked at the river and chatted. Went back and picked up coffees. Timed that well arriving with only one person in front of us.
Later bought a veru nice mushroom and vegi stir fry for lunch.
On the way back at River side, jumped on a kitty cat - this is a free ferry service. This got us across the river fr a different route back.
