Apart from the city itself Malik Hooker Colts Jersey , Brisbane is close to some of the best beaches in the world. The Gold Coast and the Sunshine Coast are about one hour away.

In no particular order, here's my list. If you would like to suggest other things to love about Brisbane, please e-mail the author.

The climate. Yes, it does get hot sometimes Tyquan Lewis Colts Jersey , especially in February, but Brisbane climate is absolutely fantastic. The best months are April, May, September and October.

Fluoride-free water. Brisbane City does not yet have fluoride. The Labor state government is putting pressure on all Queensland local councils to start a fluoridation programme because it believes fluoridation will reduce public health costs through a reduction in tooth decay. I don't know about you Kemoko Turay Colts Jersey , but I do not trust governments. If fluoride is so good why don't bottled water companies have fluoride-enhanced products? Surely such a beneficial ingredient would be a great differentiator and a certain money-spinner. Yep, you guessed it, adding fluoride to bottled water is just too big a risk. The company lawyers run a mile at the very thought.

The suburb of West End. Located across the river from Brisbane CBD, West End is an eclectic mix of interesting shops and restaurants. For an interesting dining experience Braden Smith Colts Jersey , check out the many family owned eateries at the junction of Melbourne Street and Stanley Street. Pick up a bottle of Australian wine from the Melbourne Hotel and take your pick of restaurant. You won't be disappointed.

The Brisbane City Council online library catalog. This would have to be the best value in Australia for people who love and read lots of books. Just point your browser at the library catalogue web site. If you have a Brisbane City library card, for 55 cents you can have the book of your choice delivered to your local library for collection. There are not a lot of book shops (for new books that is), in Brisbane, now you know why.

Footpath dining. In some suburbs of Brisbane Darius Leonard Colts Jersey , footpath dining is all the rage. It's a very pleasant experience watching the world go buy while you tuck into a T-bone steak the size of a small Pacific island.

Brisbane bikeways and bike paths. Brisbane's bicycle travel network gets better each year. I ride to work at South Brisbane each day on a bike track that runs parallel to the South-East Freeway. It takes me 20 minutes and it is a great way to start the day.

Virgin Blue and Boeing Headquarters. Both Virgin Blue and Boeing have chosen to locate their Australian head offices in Brisbane. Apart from the offer of generous tax concessions from the State government, Brisbane can offer these companies good infrastructure, a well-educated and dynamic workforce, and a healthy business climate. I think it's great that both these companies have chosen Brisbane.

32 perch housing blocks. After the Second World War Quenton Nelson Colts Jersey , Brisbane property developers used 32 perches as a standard size of subdivison. On this size block you can fit a cricket pitch, swimming pool and garden shed. And there's still room left over for the Hills Hoist.

Galvanised roofs and open verandahs. The quintessential Brisbane house has a red galvanised roof and open verandahs. The open verandah is a very efficient way of adding to the floor space and assisting in ventilation. The should be a law mandating the addition of verandahs of at least 2 metres diameter around at least 50% of the perimeter of new homes.

The Story Bridge. Finished in 1940, the Story Bridge is a Brisbane icon. Stretching 281 metres across the Brisbane river, the Story Bridge took over 5 years to build at the cost of $3.2 million and the lives of four workers. As far as bridges go Le'Raven Clark Black Jersey , this one is a cracker.

Quest Community Newspapers. Each week Quest publish a free newspaper that is distributed to households via letterbox drops. It features local stories and is supported by classified and display advertising . It's only about 8% news, but it's free and it has a television guide. You can measure the economic health of Brisbane by the weight of the local newspaper.

Being in the flight path. My home is under one of the flight paths. Airservices Australia tries to share the pain across different suburbs through a process of rationing, but I rather like hearing the jets on approach to Brisbane airport. You can almost see the smiling faces of the Japanese tourists squished against the windows of the aircraft as they get their first glimpse of Brisbane. Brisbane's airport operates 24 hours a day. This is good for trade and tourism.

The Brisbane City ferries. There is nothing as relaxing as jumping on a ferry and scooting up and down the Brisbane River. Be it a slick Rivercat or an old timber chugger, a ferry ride on the Brisbane river is a must-do for visitors to Brisbane.

23 Squadron - City of Brisbane. As well as being home to the Lions Ryan Kelly Black Jersey , The Broncos, The Bears and The Bullets (all professional sporting teams), Brisbane is also home to the RAAF's 23 Squadron. 23 Squadron is an active reserve squadron that has freedom of the City of Brisbane. This means its officers, men and women have the right to march down the main streets of Brisbane with drums beating Nyheim Hines Black Jersey , swords slashing, rifles cocking, flags waving and F-111's doing dummy laser-guided bombing sorties on Brisbane City Hall.

It's nice to know that one of the most capable fighter-bombing units in the world ( 1 & 6 SQN supported by 23 SQN), is located 46 kilometres from your front door.

Brisbane City Council. With a budget bigger than the state of Tasmania Henry Anderson Black Jersey , Brisbane City Council is well funded and well run. Because it is big and mean, it can't be pushed around by more politically-motivated state and federal governments. This is good for the residents of Brisbane and means good planning
