Gold Coast 2015 – Day 8 – Dreamworld (4th visit)…last update from the Gold Coast! Well, just as we were all starting to slow down a bit towards the end of the holiday and expecting a bit of a rest, we’re hit with an absolutely massive last full day that will leave us remembering the […]

Gold Coast 2015 – Day 7 – Dreamworld (3rd visit)… I don’t know if it was whether I slept awkwardly or whether the exhaustion of hitting the theme parks every day has finally caught up with me but it was around 8:30am when I got up this morning. Ordinarily, and on a good weekend, I […]

Gold Coast 2015 – Day 6 – Seaworld & Movie World… I’m up at 5:45am this morning! Are you serious!? If this trend carries on, I’ll soon be getting up before I go to bed each bloody night. Why is it that my body clock works on a 25 hour day ordinarily but a 23 […]

Gold Coast Sep 2015 – Day 2 – Dreamworld With yesterday having been a busy travel day, filled with more stress than was originally anticipated, we had resigned ourselves to the idea that today would be a rest day. In the end, it turned into a full-on day and I’m just now starting to feel […]

Gold Coast Sep 2015 – Day 1 – getting there… Ok, here we go again! Exactly 2 years ago, we were doing the very same thing – rushing around trying to get ready for a week’s worth of Queensland fun. We’re even staying in the same accommodation and flying with the same airline on this […]
