SO i had such an awesome time in Brisbane! was absolutely amazing catching up with my brother again! and man was it awesome to have my dad there! i tell you it's so much nicer traveling and doing things with people you know!
Anyways let's start off at the beginning! it was a cold miserable day in NZ (no offense) and thank to my good friend anthony we got to the airport (making a pit stop or 2 on the way XD) then we jumped on a plane and 3 hours later we were in sunny oz! although it wasn't very sunny because it was night! Hoooooooooly heck! it was soooo good to actually be meet at the airport and not only that but by some1 with a car! man that made life sooo much easier!! XD
So the next day we went to Dreamworld! had soooooo much fun! got to be my fav of all the theme parks! and was stoked to get to ride on every ride! they had just opened a new ride called the buzz saw! which was very fun! i had to wait over an hour (by myself cause every1 else chickened out) in the blistering hot heat! we somehow managed our trip to oz to coincide with the first week of school holidays! thank goodness there were no queues! don't know why but i'm not gona get upset XD
sadly i can't recall what we did everyday but i'll highlight some of the main things that were really cool! one day we did a tour of brisbane city where we drove around everywhere and caught the ferry! got to see my cool friends university! we also went to south bank to see the man made beach! i'm not sure why but beaches never really do it for me! i guess i just take them for granted! we're sooooo lucky to have world class beaches here in NZ! We went out to dinner a couple of times! firstly to Hungry Jack's! which we know as BK! and also went to the Hog's Breath Cafe! gotta love that place! Alex had the most amazing rocky road dessert! absolutely huuuuuuuuuuge! it's amazing he got through so much of it! XD
Before i forget i must put in one of my absolute biggest highlights of our time in Australia! a Trip to Allan's Music World! Laaaaaaaaaa! was soooo good! for those of you who don't know i went to get sheet music! we have a terrible range of it in NZ and when you do find it it's like $50+ for simple things! anyways i had a field day in there! could hardly make up my mind on what to get! after 4 or 5 books i was like come on chris! you have to start saying no! so i limited myself to only 3 more XD i don't dare say how much i spent on it! only thing is i will have to wait a year before i can play it all cause my dad took it back to NZ with him! =(
Finally the last couple things we did was a trip to some malls and the movies to see cowboys and aliens! (which by the way is not such a bad movie), a trip to Bribie island - we had a car and tried using a GPS, after a while we heard it say "you have reached your destination" and we looked at each other and were like ummm no! hahah turned out we had programmed in Port of Brisabane and not Bribie island XD hahahhaha no wonder there were soo many trucks! XD then there was a trip to Byron bay! was really cool! super busy but had some very cool scenery! we chilled there and went to the lighthouse! oooooooooh and they had this amazing sand sculpture of a dragon on the beach! kudos to those who made it! :D come sunday dad flew back to NZ (super early) and that night i headed to the airport myself ready to start my next adventure!
Thanks so much to the peeps in Australia for making it such an awesome time! was very cool and will def miss it alot! but as they say in Oz, no Dramas! or Too easy! XD
