Yesterday Matt and I had a day off work, and I took him to Bribie Island. This "island" is just a part of the coast enclosed by a narrow waterstream, and a bridge takes you onto it. It is close enough (1 hour drive) from Brisbane to be a popular place to go to if the citizens want to go to a bit of nature. To the left and right of the road, the most attractive locations have been sold as waterfront properties long ago. But there are also some protected areas along the beach and foreshore. Many birds and other wildlife live there. It was too cold to go into the water, but we did a walk taking photos of birds and the shore.
There is a funny type of U-shaped jellyfish, crystal clear, that is washed ashore here. No head, no visible organs, no way of locomotion, no signs of life. A jelly bean the size of a Weisswurst.
