Cafe Open!

Despite the road closures - Mt Crosby Road is again barricaded, the cafe is open. The park is closed - with the Brisbane River level hitting 6 metres, and the bridge over Colleges Crossing is again underwater.
Seqwater is releasing 100,000+ megalitres a day out of the dam and the river level is expected to climb during the day.
While the main gates are closed - customers can still access the park through the gate opposite the caretaker's house.
The weather is fine at the moment - but this monsoon-like event that has enveloped Queensland isn't going away with forecasters predicting wet weather until March.
But, today the sun is shining, the wind is calm - and the cafe is doing what it does best - making breakfast and serving great espresso coffee.
A ringside seat on the angry river is just a bonus.
