Return to the Bay …
More wildlife: you don't need to go on an African safari to see giraffes when there's a herd of them in the Port of Brisbane! The port, almost 20 km distant, is considerably further away than it appears in the image. The two weird silhouettes are container vessels (bearing the necessities of our consumer lifestyle from China?).
I went home, hoping that there had been some rain to cheer up the garden: forlorn hope. I think that silly cloud and its friends dumped all their water into the Pacific Ocean. Ridiculous!

Brighton Beach, Moreton Bay
Fetch! (Golden Retriever?) The tide was out: an ideal time to walk the dogs on the mudflats of Moreton Bay. The rough texture of the tidal flats is the handiwork of millions of sand bubblers, small crabs that live in the warm waters of the Indo-Pacific region. They feed by filtering sand through their mouthparts, leaving behind balls of sand that are disintegrated by the incoming high tide.Brighton Beach, Moreton Bay

Scarborough on Redcliffe Peninsula
The second stop of the ride came only an hour after the fist coffee break. Leisurely pace! (But who cares?)Tingira Park

Schulz Canal from Jim Soorley Bikeway
I know my ride up the bay is almost over when the flight path to Brisbane Airport, the mangrove-lined Schulz Canal and the Jim Soorley Bikeway run parallel to one another. In fifteen or twenty minutes another ebike adventure will be over. Well, there is 'tomorrow and tomorrow'.Schulz Canal from Jim Soorley Bikeway
