Hello. Thanks for coming to see my blog.
Last time I showed you photos from Brisbane. We also went for a couple of days to the Gold Coast.
The first day we explored the beach and played in the surf. It's a long time since I've done that. Exhilarating!
We loved the pelicans. So great to see them in their natural habitat, here, as well as in Brisbane.
The second day we hired a BBQ boat to wander around the waterways and see the houses of the rich with their boats. The boat could only go about 6 knots so we all took turns at being Captain. No risk of ending up in New Zealand! Having a BBQ on the boat was also a novelty for us.
I hope you enjoy the photos.
Next time roos, koalas, wombats and emus! Hope to see you then
Alan
What do you mean "smile".
How'm I s'posed to do that?
OK that's enough, I'm off.........
I bet YOU can't do this!
There's a gorgeous chick watching me,
I'd better do this in style....
As we arrived at the Gold Coast
Now that's what I call a beach!
Cloud, beach'n surf
Up and down it's 57 kilometers long!
A building that caught my eye at sunset
In the evening we went for a walk to Surfer's
paradise along the beach
Off we go....
The "Gold Coast" living up to its name
Haven't worked out yet how to straighten
leaning buildings because of wide-angle distortion.
This is Jim being the first cap'n on our trip
around the waterways
Looking towards the beach
"How do you travel to work sir?" "By chopper,
I can't be dealing with public transport..."
Floating Church, do you think they take it out
to lighthouses and oil rigs?
Our anchoring spot for lunch
The galley crew busily preparing...
Waterfront houses
If you can't have a helicopter,
I guess this is the next best thing
Making our way back
A great way to spend 4 hours!
