We arrived home yesterday after stopovers in Rome and Helsinki. We flew into Australia through glorious blue skies and mountains of white clouds.

It is always exciting to catch sight of Australia.

I don’t know where we crossed the coast, but it must have been somewhere near Cape York.

We flew along the east coast of Queensland. There has been lots of rain recently so everything was looking green.

The hills behind Brisbane looked great. We flew over the glasshouse mountians and towards Moreton Bay.

Soon it was time to fly through the clouds and into Brisbane.

Brisbane turned on a perfect autumn day for us with warm sun and blue skies. Our neighbour has been looking after our house for us while we have been away and everything looks great. We have a new additon to our courtyard.
our pineapple
Several years ago I planted a pineapple top in a pot and a pineapple has appeared as if by magic.
I look forward to rediscovering lovely Brisbane and catching up with friends.
