Again we woke up early but it was around 6.30 am. After we had breakfast we watched this big fat bird who our aunt named Boris the Ibis looking for food at the apartment block directly opposite ours. We are sure Boris is the Ibis that hangs around the pool here. By looking at his size, we reckon he must get fed at every apartment block along the Gold Coast. Our aunt was thinking of various marinades and ways to cook Boris as he is so big. we took a photo of Boris with Maddie in the foreground – it doesn’t do Boris justice – he looked smaller than in real life so we haven't included it in our Blog but we have included a photo taken from our apartment towards the Gold Coast city centre - about a 2 minute walk!
We went to Wet’n’Wild after breakfast. We got their early to beat the crowds but there were already over 100 people there just after 9 am who had the same idea as us. It doesn’t open until 10 am.
Our first ride was the Super 8 Aqua Racer which we, except our aunt, went on and raced each other head first down this gigantic water slides – awesome! We worked our way around the park all day and our favourite attractions included the Tornado, Calypso River, Surfrider and Mammoth Falls. It was very overcast and there was some rain for a short time, but we didn’t mind as we were already wet.
It was a really fun day. We are knackered as we didn’t stop. Guess that our aunt and uncle would be pretty tired too. Also Maddie and our aunt and uncle got sunburn, even though they had sunblock on - lots of it! Ouch!!
We are going to the Surfers Paradise RSL Club tonight for dinner as we heard the meals are really good.
