Day 6 - Welcomed to Gold Coast (Sun 14th Nov)

An early start on Sunday waking up at 06:00 having to pack in preparation for our travels to Gold Coast. Chaggie managed to get a good few games of Pool in after breakfast before our trip, it is still currently very tight at 6-6 (that's 12 very long games as we're both crap).

At 11:30ish we were once again very lucky to get a lift from Graeme and Lorraine to Gold Coast. On the way we stopped at Mount Tamborine where we had lunch at a place with great views of Gold Coast, both Phill and I had a burger and chips. After our stop in Mount Tamborine, we carried on our journey to Gold Coast getting a good look at 'Surfers Paradise' and 'Broadbeach', both places we hope to visit during our stay. We got to Gold Coast around 15:30 finding our hotel resort with Graeme's sat-nav. Here's some pictures of our room:






Graeme and Lorraine left soon after, both Phill and I would like to give another huge thankyou for everything you both did for us last week!

This afternoon, once settled in Chaggie went for their first food shop! Spending 1 hour and 20 dollars each we certainly managed to get enough to last us till Friday! (It's presently Tuesday and we still have loads).

We got back to our appartment and cooked dinner around 18:00, spaghetti carbonara, Phill's volunteered as chef whilst Chino has picked the short straw to do washing and drying up. Both were looking forward to the beach (on our doorstep) the next day!
