Friday, 5 March 2010 - Daytripping to Movieworld






We got up early (5 am) as we were so excited about visiting Movie World today. Our aunt and uncle weren't too impressed nonetheless. It was very warm so they decided toget the airconditioning set-up.

It was a short drive, about half an hour to Movie World. We were amongst a few already there at 9ish - it doesn't open until 10 am. We went on lots and lots of rides. The first one being the Batwing Spaceshot which is a rapid 4.5g vertical launch up a 60 metre tower, followed by a really fast drop - awesome!! We covered all rides at Movie World - with a couple we repeated as we enjoyed them so much, like the Scooby Doo Spooky Coaster, the Wild West Falls ride and the Superman Escape rollercoaster. We had so much fun. We also spent sometime in the "Kids Fun Zone". Yes, we were a bit big but we sure did have some fun. Although God did punish us as we each were in a bircage in the Sylvester & Tweety ride and the rain came bucketing down. We sure did look like three water-sogged canaries!!

We saw lots of characters including Batman, Catwoman, Austen Powers, Sylvester - to name a few! The stunt show was brilliant although some of the driving stunts made us homesick as they reminded us of mum and dad's driving!

Our last adventure for the long day was seeing a Shrek Adventure in 4D! It was fantastic and made us feel as if we were there. We had front row seats too! When Donkey sneezed, we got sprayed. When the spiders came out everyone screamed as it felt as if they were crawling up our legs. Scary stuff - mum would have freaked out!!

Got back to our resort about 5pm. We were hot so us kids went for another swim with our uncle Don overseeing us. Our aunt Anne remained indoors doing domestic stuff!

We went for a drive to find the local RSL club which we had heard had fantastic food. Later found out it was only a short hop, skip and jump away! By that time we had eaten. We had kebabs tonight which we sat down to eat in the cool night in Cavill Avenue.

Off to bed - we're stuffed and need to recharge as tomorrow it's Wet'n'Wild!!
