Lots of trees have fallen over in the strong winds in the last few days. There are actually two trees that have fallen over in this photo, but only one hit the house. I do not believe that anyone was hurt.

Ken Fletcher Park — Brisbane’s newest park
Ken Fletcher Park is Brisbane’s newest park. It is located in Tennyson, next to the Queensland Tennis Centre. These photos were taken early in the morning when there were no kids around. Later in the day, the park is very popular and I imagine will become a favourite place for parents to hold children’s birthday parties.
