Gold Coast trip

the trip has been planned for quite awhile. glad that it finally happened. January 26 till February 3rd 2007. Nayli missed school for about a week. I guess she is the person who has been looking forward to the trip the mostest amongst any of us. She has been asking when is January? And
when it was already January... how many more days before the trip...


26 Jan : Left for Brisbane - transit at Singapore Changi to catch Qantas

27 Jan : Day 1 - Reached the Land Downunder early in the morning. Too early to head straight to the apartment at Coolangatta, so we drove around, supposedly to head to Brisbane town first, somehow we managed to get lost around the airport drive, and ended up in the Motorway ading towards Coolangatta so what the heck we went on but stop for b'fast at the 1st town that we passed that had Arndale Shopping Centre, that was our first (of cetainly many many) stop at an Oz Supermarket. When we reached the apartment it was almost time for check-in. after that we just laze around, checked out the beach from a look out point and of course took more pictures.

28 Jan : Day 2 - Dreamworld. Spent the whole day here from 9:30 am till 5 p.m. If only they open up till late. We might still be there till then, you really can spend the whole day here cause, there are just loads to do and the kids really wouldn't mind getting on the same rides more than once. They added a lot of new attractions and rides since the last time I've been here. That was way back in 1991 or was it 1993, can't remember. Anyhow, now that I have kids with me and at their age, [Nayli (will be 6 this June, this has to be stated precisely or she will not accept it!) and Zarif is 3], it is much more worth it to go. As they would get on all the kiddy rides and attractions like the Wiggles World, the Nickelodeon Attractions etc etc. The Mama, Papa & Uncle enjoys all the thrill rides....

29 Jan : Day 3 - to be continued...
