TOOWONG CEMETERY

Started out early this day for a wander around Brisbane's oldest cemetary...it is 200 acres...and Im sure I didnt see it all! The  biggest most opulent graves on hill tops ect,seem to be for politicians, 
mind you from way back when they had more respect,back in the day.


The teaset  monument is  to a little girl...sad...but a fitting tribute to her life. SO many nooks and crannies.....Took the husband and son with me...and It was an hour or two of trying to find each other...as I took off alone  as soon as the car was parked! If you look in the distance..you can see part of Brisbane city. A few miles of walking in the very warm Queensland sunshine...and I was done....lots more to see...but maybe another day...the do have a ghost tour of a saturday night...Ill have to be going to that some time...  :) and we know I love a good ghost story!! 
P>S  If you click on the piccies they open up bigger   :)
