Beautiful Minjerribah

Here in Brisbane we are very fortunate to be close to so many beautiful natural places within a couple of hours from home. Minjerribah (Stradbroke Island) is a large sand island just off the coast & a short 45 minute ferry ride away.It is the ancestral home of the Quandamooka people. Apparently Minjerribah means ‘place of many mosquitoes’ in the local Quandamooka language. Here are some photos from our recent camping trip there. Thankfully there weren’t too many mosquitoes, & yes, I did take my sketchbook.
