Brisbane Travel Journal

If you see this category, I visited Brisbane, Australia. I said “if you see…” because I wrote this category description before I went. My journal supposedly won’t display a category until there is at least one entry in it.

The entries will be posts about my time in Brisbane. Reliable sources in my head tell me Brisbane no longer serves as a penal colony, as it once did. I hope those sources in my head are right. Although, you typically can’t trust them. I mean, you can. But it wouldn’t be wise.

This is a sub-subcategory of “Australia,” which is a subcategory of “Australasia.”
