to GOLD COAST
 

This is said esp to Sharon&Xiaobei
We all joined SA(UIC) tour to the southern part of Australia, Gold Coast. It was a 6 days dunno how many nights(can't remember) tour. It took us almost 8 hours in air before we reached Brisbane, capital of Queensland. Basically, the tour was about rides, fun & attractions. Nothing very scenic except for the beach at Surfers Paradise. Maybe coz we went there in early winter so the water was not very blue, except on the day of our departure. Anyway, we still had fun. Right, Sharon & Bei?
Note: what i said above is all based on memory. if inaccurate, pls tell me.

This is the lst theme park we went to. heard from many pple that this is the not so fun one compared to movieworld & dreamworld. hehehe.  But i think it's quite ok lah. not tat bad afterall. It's a place abt marine life, water shows & rides. sad thing is we din see the dolpin show. but we did see the water show below(left) one of the rides was the roller coaster, Corksrew(right) and went into the Bermuda Triangle(below):
