Day 229: ...sweet music...and South Bank
Sunday. Plenty of overnight rain to clear the place of dustiness and dryness. Not enough for our country cousins but refreshing to wake up to nonetheless.
Work aplenty to do of course so what better thing to do than go into the city to hear a concert that was to go live to air on ABC Classic FM. A Cuban pianist, Marialy Pacheco played some jazz standards, some of her own compositions and all with that Cuban vibe. She lived in Brisbane for a while some years ago and composed a piece dedicated to Brisbane. How nice. A fabulous way to spend part of the afternoon; and any excuse to spend time in ABC Brisbane's lovely Studio 420 at South Bank.

Spent a little extra time walking around South Bank as well, took some time out to do some reading riverside because it was such a nice day and tried some gourmet fried bananas* because you just never know when a tourist is going to ask your opinion on local foods (*contained traces of fruit).

Not that I'm counting down the days...of course.
