Gold Coast episode 1
Yo people...
After exams had been busy with plenty of stuff such as parties.. LAN parties.. Chilling out... But this post is concentrated on the Gold Coast Trip we planned out few days before our flight. It was on the 16th November.. Marcus suggested if we wanna go to Gold Coast or not? Since no one disagreed.. we began planning the next day.
On the 17th November, a Monday, we went to University to plan out the itinerary and the accomodation. The flight was on the 19th of November.. Talk about quick planning..~!:P Well anyways.. Since our flight was at 6am in the morning, and due to public transportation constraints.. "Stupid public transports.. open so late..>,<" We had to spend the night roaming around the city and caught the skybus to the airport at about 3am.. Woooo Hooo..~!!! Our Gold Coast trip began. Heading up the escalators to find a place to chill out at the airport

Being bored and all we encountered a sign that caught our attention... We weren't allowed to stand at that particular spot... It was reserved for cute little minicarts only.
Therefore, instead of standing.. We sat on those "cute" little minicarts.. keke..:P
We were REALLY REALLY bored waiting for time to pass.. so we went to take a look at the arcade.. as usual.. its ridiculously expensive thus we did not play at all.. posed there though..
Eventually we went to sleep since we were tired..
However, due to me starting my conquest on the GOD OF WAR on PSP, I was busy playing the PSP instead.:P Managed to complete it in 3 days.. Wooo Hoo..~!!
Finally we took the plane to our destination, GOLD COAST on the Virgin Blue Air... The moment we touched down, the weather wasn't as sunny as we thought.. but then again, there were reports on a cyclone nearly in Brisbane which explained the humid and hot weather.. thankfully there were occasional cool breeze blowing. Anyways we went to the infomation counter to get some info about the transportation system here.. We were on a budget trip..!
Finally, we reached the hotel, 'Crown Towers'.. Not Related to Crown Casino..:P But the place looked decent. Took a photo with a sculpture of a surfer dude.
Next, we head to our apartment.
The Rooms
We were all tired..
When we were waiting for time to pass, we were saved by SPONGEBOB..~!! haha.. yea they had TV there..~!
Everyone grouped to dine on our addiction.. Red Rock Deli Chips..~!!
Since it was in the morning and we had nothing for breakfast, Marcus and Gerrard decided to cook.
Taa Daaa..~~!! Eggs and Bread.. our breakfast
Well, since the weather that day was a slight drizzle, we decided to go the "WHITE WATER WORLD" which was located next to DREAMWORLD...
Our purchase for the package to allow us to enter both WHITE WATER WORLD and DREAMWORLD within 3 days twice.
Stay tuned for the next episode of GOLD COAST by Ming Kim. Anyways, here are the view right from the balcony at the apartment we stayed.
BEAUTIFUL isn't it? WOoooo... I fell in love with the place..~!! haha..~!!
