Happy New Year?

It's yet another new year.. The year of 2008 was uneventful with a lot of sharp corners.. The month of December 2008 was dedicated to the country of Australia, where I spent 2 weeks.

I was in Brisbane, Gold Coast and Sydney in the duration of 2 weeks and had lots of fun there.

Brisbane is a nice relaxing place to be, a place away from the rush and the stress..

Look at the picture of the university.. Isn't there a traquil feel? In any case, I am very sure that other than the fact that Brisbane, or should I say Australia is an expensive place to stay, the slower lifestyle pace is something that I would seriously consider when it is time for me to retire.. This round, while in Brisbane, I drove instead of taking public transport while on the outskirts like Toowong and Sunnybank. It is a different experience with a lot of fun. Driving there is so much lesser stress. Drivers are, in general, more considerate as compared to Singapore. I would miss Brisbane, a quiet and nice place.. I look forward to be there again in 2010, if my schedule permits..

Nice Storybridge.. Will go for a climb the next visit.. I will stop this post here.. Will post about Gold Coast and Sydney another time.. Time to rush my stuff..
