Easter Long Weekend
easter was spent in the eastern part of Oz.... goldcoast, brisbane and byron bay (the eastern most point in oz)....
pictures of us in the theme park....
insider the Shrek shop.... rows and rows of gingerbread man... so cute... was tempted to get one.... mi n zijia trying to be "Puss-in-boots"... zijia is doing quite a good job... but mi, having under-developed facial muscles cant realli do it all that well.. hehe....
harry potter shop... the harry potter soft toys look quite "chiong".... not cute at all...
alwaz remembered Movie World having lots of cartoon characters walking around and posing with little kids... that's my impression when i went about 10 years ago... things have certainly changed... cant seem to find any more of those cartoon characters... tazzie devil and tweety bird were the onli 2 that we managed to catch... n there's this lonely marilyn monroe walking around with NO crowd at all... poor her... guess kids nowadaes dun realli know who she is....
pictures of some roller coasters that we took.. the "road-runner" and "superman".... the "road-runner" roller coaster was just a pre-empt to the highlight --> "superman" ride... we actualli took the "road-runner" in the kids corner... hahaha... 3 weak-hearted old ladies... we were so scared when we were waiting for the "superman".... tummy-ache n toilet needs were surfacing continuously as we were waiting for our turn for the ride... hahha... check out how scaree it looks from the photos below.... the super steep downturn was the "highlight" of the trip....
day 2 was spent watching sunrise at byron bay --> the eastern most point of oz... but from the pictures below, u can see how cloudy it was... didnt catch much of a sunrise... but nevertheless byron bay was a nice lookout with a lighthouse....
took a super early 5am flight on Sat morning to Brisbane... n den drove for another hour to Gold Coast.... we made in just in time for the opening of Movie World... And didnt know Movie World is still so popular after being around for so long.... there was a bit of queue though we reached there at 10am sharp - which is the theme park's opening hours....
here's a pix at the main drive-in entrance...
