Deborah and I made another trip into the city to visit a trendy urban neighborhood with the odd name of Fortitude Valley. Lots of interesting shops, coffee houses and eateries centered on a pedestrian mall. Nearby was the smallish Chinatown where we had lunch. A good deal of walking then brought us to the Newstead House, Brisbane’s oldest domestic dwelling and now a museum done up with Victorian furnishings. It sits on an expansive stretch of land along the Brisbane River. We jumped on the City Cat ferry to make our way back upriver in scenic fashion.
Nice Art Deco in the Fortitude Valley.
