... talked to him (but it was on the tv screen)!
Kye is a 6 year old fan of adrenalin pumping rides. There wasn't really an rides he didn't go on, he just wanted more and more and scarier and faster. He went on the Nickelodeon Runaway Reptar Roller Coaster, Mick Doohan's Motocoaster (an adult's ride!), Angry Beavers Spooty Spin, Spongebob Flypants and drove an Avis Vintage Car.
Both boys ...

Back through "Brissie" to sort out rental cars and then we continued on the road to the Tambourine Mountains with a stop in at a small town for lunch and some touring around of the area where we found loads of farms with stalls of Avocados for sale on the side of the road (The idea is novel for a South African - You are encouraged to pick up what you want and leave ...

... it was a joke but when they mention anyone from England it's 'Oh yeah, he's from Manchester...a Pom'. Hard day at work for Rob today so a chilled evening of dinner and a few beers, then off to bed. It's a bank holiday on Monday so a lot of plans were made for activities this weekend (it's the Queen's birthday...now I may be wrong but do we get a bank holiday back home for her birthday...I think not!). June 5th After walking around 12-15 km's yesterday today was my ...

... beer with the Irishfolks, and talking to some stunning girls from Denmark.... The more girls I meet from this area the more motivation I have to go there!! Guess where im planning on going in Europe?? Nuff said. I ended up starting the morning almost as bad as the previous one. This time due to the combination of me using my old nackard phone as an alarm and me sleeping like stone giant... I.. well... didnt wake up ...

... up!!!! Dustin said twice he arrived on shore with his shorts at his ankles, quickly pulled them into place and retreated into the waves....there were hundreds of onlookers on the shore so this must have been quite a site to see!?!!?!? The life guards were also out in force ~ there were 2 life guards on surf boards sitting past the Rip, 1 lifeguard in a zodiac making quick rescues, and almost 7 lifeguards ...

... jeans and a t-shirt, to wearing shorts and a t-shirt. Walking around on the beaches of Surfer's, this moment had indeed come for Colin, just before the first day of spring, which fell on the 1st September. During Melissa & Colin's exploration of downtown Surfers, they stumbled along Cavill St, which is truly the touristiest part of the Gold Coast. A portion of this street has just recently been updated and is called 'Circle on Cavill ...

... a fake beach resort which is closed in the winter. After dumping our stuff in a locker, we head straight to The Tornado, Spanish for Hurricane you know, which is the main attraction here at the park. Before you can ride The Tornado though, you have to climb several flights of stairs with a giant 2 man rubber ring. At the top we both climb into the rubber ring, facing each other, then we slide rather sedately down the flume and round some bends. Then, suddenly you fly ...

Well..Surfers was our next stop up the coast, goodness knows we needed a break after surfing, our bodies felt like they had gone through a boxing match with Mike Tyson!!! The first night in surfers was an organized club crawl for all backpackers, so we thought we would join in the fun! We had pre drinks at the hostel and then all piled into a bus to ...

... weather is warm, but not too hot, but at night it is absolutely freezing! We went to a local club on what was a student night and it was so simular to any club you could find back home in Britain in terms of the music, drink prices and attitude! For food, most days we buy groceries in and make our own to save money, but we treated ourselves to a family deal between us at Pizza Hut!!!

... rewards room'...it's kind of a big thing. anyways it's an awful show yet addicting and i can't help it...i will have withdrawls once i return to the states. shelli knows my obsession and i think i got her into the show. saturday i again was on a mission and made my way to the glebe markets. these markets were AMAZING...so many vintage things, hand-made clothes and a very cool hippy-vibe to them. again i got to count this as research as i did a story for my internship on markets ...
