Brisbane, Day 10

This morning, our professor led us on a short tour of the city. We started by going up the clock tower of City Hall, and then took the bus down to the Parliament House of Queensland. We were given a tour of the building, which included a library with documentation from every session of Parliament, and the main chambers. Our guide was very informative about the roles of the different branches of Australian government. We had the afternoon free, so we headed out to Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary. The sanctuary is home to 130 koalas, as well as kangaroos, wallabies, emus, and other native Australian animals. We were able to hold a koala, and were also able to walk around with the kangaroos and wallabies.
