Moving onto Goldie

We hit the gold coast last Friday. It was a busy day as we only got our car back from the mechanic on the same day that we had to pack up and leave Byron bay. Luckily it was only about a 90 minute drive - albeit hairy, as our surfboards flew off the trailer on the highway and were run over by a campervan - miraculously they are still all in one piece.

Weather has been mostly great at the Gold Coast and the caravan park is rather luxurious. It's very well set up for families with lots for the kids to do and a few added bonuses for parents (barista made coffee in the morning or cocktails by the pool in the afternoon)

We have ten days here and they will mostly be spent visiting theme parks (this is what convinced the kids that this trip is a good idea) and a visit to tambourine mountain. We are trying to slow down a little as the pace has been a bit too much for Lucy. 

Next stop after Gold Coast is Brisbane to stay with friends and catch up with family!
