It is the 'GABBA' - home to cricket and AFL.
WELL DONE, BEN!

Here's another place for you to name. What is it?
Many people are at this place tonight. Why?

Hi Mrs M

The first big square stadium is Suncorp Stadium. My mum and dad watched the football last night and they said that's where it is. The second one I guessed myself. It is of the barge that goes to Straddie. We have friends that live on Straddie and we have been there on the barge and we have also caught the water taxi. My friends names are Tim and Ashley. I love Stradbroke Island.

Ben, there is just no stopping you! I thought the 'Straddie barge' picture would be the hardest - but not for you. I love going to Straddie too. I've been to many surf life saving carnivals over there. Mr M is lucky enough to be going there tomorrow with the teachers from his school.

I love Straddie too - so does my family - we love to go to the beach, play with my tip truck and go bumpy (4wd) driving. See you at school

I was amazed that Ben knew where both the pictures were taken. Well done Ben!

Lauren, I was amazed too, especially with the Straddie picture. Before long you'll be an expert too, amazing us with 'Google Earth' knowledge. If you like, you can explore Google earth tomorrow when your Mum comes up to help.
