Welcome to Brisbane, where the spiders are gigantic

I knew Australia would be full of highly poisonous creepy crawlies, but I didn’t expect to run into one of the biggest spiders of my life in the window of a building in downtown Brisbane (on my first full day in the country no less).

Those ones are not poisonous…although they are creepy. there is one that has built a massive web near to where I live and I have to go out of my way to walk around it. Are you currently in Brisbane? I live here!

Hey Jade, no, I visited Australia toward the start of my RTW trip in January 2008.
