Description of our house: A traditional 1930s Queensland timber home, unique to this state in Australia and often called a "Queenslander". It has all the usual modern conveniences and a trampoline, ping pong table and play station for the children. We have many toys, sporting equipment and books, most of which the children would be happy to share. We have a range of bicycles including a tow-behind, baby seat and a tandem.
We are willing to swap cars. Ours is a late model six cylinder, Automatic, air conditioned Toyota Camry station wagon. We still have a car seat and booster for young children. Borrowing our camping equipment is also a possibility.
The master bedroom has a king size ensemble bed with a latex mattress which is very comfortable. The children's beds also have latex mattresses. There is a fold out double sofa bed in the lounge. Broadband internet and email is installed on the new Apple/Mac computer with scanner and printer.
Our place would make an ideal base from which to explore South-East Queensland, especially as we could offer you the use of our 6 cylinder station wagon (fold down rear seat and extended luggage area). We are only 5-10 minutes walk from the Eagle Junction Railway station. Trains leave every 15 minutes or less during the day, are often express, and take 12 minutes to the centre of the city. This is also the station to catch the train to the airport if you wish though it is probably only a $10-20 taxi fare from here. A train to South Brisbane station gets you to South Bank Cultural Centre on the banks of the Brisbane River. It has a an excellent free Art Gallery and a free Museum and cheap Science Centre that children love. There are also more great bicycle paths that wind along beside the river and can take you to the Botanical Gardens on a cycle/ pedestrian only bridge.
The Southbank Parklands also have a man-made Beach. It must be one of Brisbane's Summer evening delights for the children to build sand-castles and watch the free fireworks from the warm waters of the lagoon. Near to South Bank is West End which is Brisbane's more multicultural and bohemian area with good cheap Vietnamese restaurants for example. We are minutes from the main highway which bypasses the city traffic and can take you to the famous beaches of Gold Coast (south) and Sunshine Coast (north). About an hours drive in either direction. The Gold Coast also has all the well known theme parks such as Sea world, Wet 'Wild Water Park (water slides), Movie World and Dreamworld. The sunshine coast has Underwater World (aquarium) and Steve Irwin's Australia Zoo (He's the famous Crocodile hunter you may have seen on TV) All these activities are easy day trips from our place saving on accommodation. There are many other fun things to do in Brisbane and the surrounding natural world which we can talk about when we start corresponding.
