This month, there will be a new one joins the network, Legacy Way. This toll is a 4.6-kilometre tunnel which links the Western Freeway (Toowong) to Kelvin Grove. The construction are completed, and today opened to Brisbane people walk though! However, I got another work to do, I cannot be this events.

One of reasons I love Brisbane is for jogging. Brisbane is a very good place for Jogging. There are a lot of parks which is a lovely place to jog, such as Calamvale District Park..wpid-p_20150525_094701.jpg

Especially, now is in winter, some of trees turned red, they are very beautiful.

Secondly, Brisbane has plenty of fresh air! I love it!

I almost go out for jogging every day!

H&M@Garden City

H&M@Garden City
Yesterday, there was the grand opening of H&M new branch at Garden City. This is the 2nd branch of this fashion grant, H&M, in Queensland.
Today, I and my wife went to there for shopping. There were too many people. We had to line up a queue to enter the store. The waiting time wasn’t very long, only for a few minutes. We found the store is quite large, the store has two stories, including male ,female and kids fashion departments, fashion accessories and sportwear. Also, there are some grand opening offers, , such as $2.95 for a shirt! Most of goods are only around $20 to $30. Those prices are quite reasonable, which are similar with H&M in Hong Kong. I think those are the reasons to attract the crowds today!

Bushwalking@Daisy Hill Regional Park

wpid-p_20150314_105637.jpgRecently, I found a good spot for bushwalking. That is in Daisy Hill,Daisy Hill Conservation Park. There are a lot of tracks which are good for bushwalking,  That is very easy to walk, there are not many slopes required to walk.

The most of tracks have trees to be covered. You need to be too worry about the sunburns.Of course, the sunscreens are required.

I have spent about two hours walk in there, that was enjoyable. Note that, the tracks are shared by cycle and horse riders.

In addition, this park is not far at all, about 15 minutes driving springwood and plenty of parking spots. This park is the hills road in Daisy Hills, which is around exit 24 of pacific highway, you can follow the signs when you are off from Pacific Highway.
