Brisbane, Australia - again!!

As soon as I got my very first invitation to a TOG Wedding, I was on my way again. I made sure I travelled first class so to get to my next destination on time. I found myself back in Sunny Brisbane, but this time it was not so sunny - I dont like thunderstorms or blackouts, but Southn_ Comfort reassured me that all would be ok.

For my first outing I sneaked into Kaos' bag when she went to the Brisbane Law Courts (I thought she was going to try & get me permanent residency, but apparently I have a few more years of travel left in me)


Here I am with Southn_Comfort outside court 6A


Southn & Kaos then took me on a boat ride across the Brisbane River - they told me I had to stay in Southn's pocket so that I didnt become bull shark bait.

My next big outing was to Kaos' Hens Night (bachelorette party). I felt so privileged to be the only token male allowed to attend this 'Secret Women's Business'....but I think I may need therapy now!!!

I was a little worried when Kaos came out with pink hair



Halfway through the night they changed Kaos' crown.....I had to get a closer look...OMG I think I blushed a little when I realised what they were, but it's too rude to put a photo up.

I thought you had to be in the water to go surfing....but Kaos introduced me to something called trolley surfing
I thought Kaos was so nice when she said that she would give me the house someone had given her.....I thought "finally a home of my own", then I found out that it was a gingerbread house.....in the gutter!!!!

I think I need some time to recover from that night!!!!!

We then travelled to Alma Park Zoo....We went with some of Kaos' friend who were visiting from Chicago - I told them I had stayed with MotherFlanker there - they live about 30mins from my TOG buddy.

I had my photo taken with a lot a strange animals
Peacock:
Koala:
some strange bird that is a relative to the emu:
Then I met Shrek's friend - Donkey:
Kaos held onto me real tight, as Bambi gave me a kiss:
Kaos said I was a real heart breaker, as all the animals loved me & either wanted to run away with me or give me a kiss:
but I didnt want to get too close to the mouths of some of them:
this zookeeper had to save me from the BIG olive python
& Kaos had her thumb on the crocodiles head while I went in for a closer look:

When I heard someone yell out "A dingo ate my baby", I got a little worried & asked Southn if he could take me home:
It has been an actioned packed few days & I'm exhausted, but the excitement is building in the Southn/Kaos house, as there is only 4 more sleeps to the BIG event, & I'll even get see a few more of my fellow Toggers.

Until next time....GAME ON!!!!
