Home Sweet Home

03/07/13 - Broadwater Stopover Touris Park
 
We were lucky to arrived to Gold Cost after all the crazy weather. We were even able to go for a walk on the Surfers Paradise beach.
 
 
 
 
 

Lidia was happy to find the Miami beach but it was nothing special.
 
 



We stopped for a lunch and this was our view. The whole Surface Paradise looked like city in the clouds/ the flying city.

 


And after more driving along the Gold Cost  just like that we were in NSW!








04/07/13 - Kempsey Showgrounds
 
 
It was another sunny day so we stopped at the Emerald Beach and went for a walk  on the Costal Walk (well just a little part of it).








There were some "local" kangaroos sunbathing on hills and Lidia collected some more shells.   
 




After that we went to see the Big Banana and had a little wonder around Coffs Harbour




 
 
 
 
05/07/13 - Home Sweet Home
 
It's nice to be home and it's nice to be able to cuddle our puppies again.

Brisbane

 
Pomona Showground - 30/06/13
 
We were on our way to Hervey Bay when the weather start getting worst. As the town has a lot of outside activities to offer we went just for a quick drive/walk around the shore.
 
The lady in the information centre told us the on this day Maryborough town is having a big parade for Mary Poppins so we decided to check this out. The reason why they have this parade is that the author of Mary Poppins, P.L.Travers was born in Maryborough QLD. The funny thing is she left this town when she was 9mths old.
The parade was fun and even the weather was not to bad so we spent some time just walking around the town. We decided to have a wood-fired pizza for lunch and the waiting was so long that Lidia went to get a German sausage as a pre-lunch.
 

 



Carbrook Caravan Park (Brisbane) 01/07/13 - 02/07/13


When we get to Noosa Heads we were lucky cos the sun was out after all night of raining. We went for a nice long walk in the National Park which is by the shore. We didn't spot any dolphins but just plenty of  surfers. 


 
 

After than we drove down on the Sunshine Cost road but unfortunately it was raining and we couldn't enjoy the place as much as we should. We didn't see so much rain in months.


The next morning it was cloudy but no more rain, which was good as we went to explore Brisbane. We thought that it would be easier to get to Brisbane by public transport. It was easier but quite expansive as well, $9.50 pp one way on the bus!! As the bus fare was valid for 2hrs and cover any other public transport we decided to get on the ferry and see Brisbane from the river. It was a quite a pleasant trip. After than we went for a little walk around the town and the famous South Bank, where they have a "London" eye and the town beach.
