I'm hoping to buy tickets today for a trip to Brisbane the week of 10 January. Just 4 days on the ground. I'll probably arrive in Sydney Tuesday morning and swing by my company's facility there for a couple of hours prior to heading back to the airport for the connection to Brisbane. Then three nights in Brisbane, likely departing Saturday morning.

So... any recommendations as to where in Brisbane to get a hotel? I'll be visiting an office downtown for a day or so, but spending the majority of my time in my company's facility in Lytton. A colleague stayed in the Morningside area a couple years ago when he was there, and thought that I would enjoy a hotel closer to downtown even though the taxi ride to Lytton would be a bit longer.

Anyone there want to join me for a beer one of the nights?

Yep, that's how it goes. I may be back sometime. Given the circumstances of this trip, one option was for me to return in a month or so to try to accomplish what didn't happen this time. The other was to do the work myself. My client opted to have me do the work - so now I have to do the work and I don't get another trip.

Oddly enough, given the circumstances, I enjoyed the trip. Wednesday morning wasn't fun, but the rest turned out well.

Glad to hear you were minimally impacted. Figured you were likely busy with more urgent matters.
