So we got to the Gold Coast the night before and really couldn't see the extent of the beach at night but the morning allowed us to see the full glory of the coast line!
So Tash and I went on a four mile walk along the coast and it just stretched on and on. We decided that we should bag some of the plans to drive out to see some waterfalls and just have a day at the beach, which partly was because we wanted a break from travel; and mainly because the GPS was a piece of crap. :)
That's my mom and dad and Tasha relaxing on the beach.
Then the clouds rolled in and we had to call our beach day cause we could read what was about to happen. Downpour! Thankfully our hotel had a luke-warm tub (instead of a hot). We relaxed in there till the rain let up then we got dressed and walked down to the local mini Golf place.
Yep we played mini-golf!
It was me and Tash against Dad and Mom.... we lost. Tash did really good, I didn't do too bad but still worse than I should have and of Course Dad did great.
We played two games, an inside course and an outside course. Inside was a dino one and outside was outside. Can't remember the theme. But it had a croc that jumps out at you :)
We finished our games and headed to our next activity. The Outback Spectacular!
This was a horse show that also fed you dinner. They gave you hats at the start and had a bit of a music concert to watch while they were getting the tables ready.
They started you off with a cream pumpkin soup then we had steak and chicken, and beans and ended with an apple pie. Very tasty.
The show had mainly horses, but then they also had relay races and campfires with ghost stories and a circus act.
A little of everything, we weren't allowed to take pictures during the show but it was a ton of fun.
On the way back we stopped at costco, with the help of a combination of useless GPS and then me looking it up on my phone, cause I downloaded the map of the area. It was a fun adventure.
Adventure is out there :)
