Holiday At Sufers Paradise 2008

Hello everyone. As you can tell by the headline we have just had a great holiday in australia on the gold coast.
Very early last sunday i was rudely awoken by mum who for some reason got me up about 3am (usually they try to get me to stay asleep). When i finally came around i saw Gran & Grandad there as well and was thinking what are they doing with me now (please let me sleep). Anyway as it turned out , they packed me into our car and off we went to the airport to start our holiday in Australia.
After a 4 hour flight (i slept for 20 mins) we arrived in Brisbane to start our journey. We got our rental car and away we headed of to the Gold Coast (Dad did a great job in convincing everyone he knew where he was driving).We finally got to our apartment and on that first day we just went to shops etc and hanged out in apartment. Everyone was a bit tired but me.

Next day we set of to visit a friend of Dads and then of to Harbour Town where we got some great bargains shopping. What i liked the best was the Bob the builder ride there. (who cares about the shopping).

On the Tuesday we went down to Coolangatta where mum & dad had to go to a meeting and Gran & Grandad looked after me for a couple of hours. In that couple of hours i had them running around in the play ground , on the beach , throwing balls etc. (they were glad when mum & dad came back i think)

Wednesday was an awesome day as we went to seaworld where we saw heaps of cool things like dolphins , sharks , sea lions , heap of fishes , water skiers , sesame street characters etc. We even went on a thing called a monorail and gondola ride. We all really enjoyed this but were very tired that night.

Thursday was another busy day getting up nice and early (well at least i woke mum & dad up about 6am most days. I just wanted to start playing) and away we went to a animal park where we saw koalas , crocodiles , ssssssssnakes , kangaroos etc. It was fun. in the afternoon we went down to the beach where dad & grandad went swimming in the ocean. I wanted to but played in the sand instead.

Friday and Saturday was just going into surfers center itself and going to the markets. We went up this big building called the Q1 which apparently is the tallest residential building in the world. we could see for miles and i had great fun running around up there. Mums friend meet up with us here and stayed for a couple of days.

Finally we got to sunday and we all packed up to go back to Brisbane to catch our flight home. We caught up with Aunty Chris for lunch there which was cool as i really like her. Only see her once every couple of years then off to airport to fly home.

I fooled everyone at the airport as they all thought if they let me run around there i sleep on the plane but i had other ideas and along with my partner in crime (boy i met on plane) we ran,jumped and talked up and down the plane all the way home.

We finally arrived back into wellington and when we got home i went of to bed and Gran & Grandad headed off to the Wairarapa.

I really enjoyed this holiday with everyone and am sure Gran & Grandad will sleep well.
