Gold Coast

A WHIRLWIND OF ADVENTURE.

Well, not quite. There was a lot of wind though (fart joke not intended.) Several weeks ago, by some act of fate someone had the idea that when Lena and I finished our exams we should totally go and stay at the coast for a night or two. In reality, I/we had the idea to stay at the coast with someone other than my mother, Lena and her mother.

Unfortunately, Lena finished her exams two weeks before I finished. Bah. University y u hate me so much? But in the end we went anyway and I'm grateful that we did end up going because it was good to have a short getaway from my busy household at the moment.

It was also kind of bad luck that during the week we went it was full on raining and it wouldn't stop! And it was so awfully windy, but that didn't stop us!

We stayed at Q1 Resort and Spa, and for a two bedroom apartment it was naaaice. And of course, being me, I always get super excited when I arrive somewhere new and I run around touching and gawking at everything. Then I took photos.


This was actually the 'balcony' of the apartment. If you didn't know, Q1 is the tallest residential apartments in all of ..what? Australia and the southern hemisphere? I was trying to spot the building while driving and I seriously could not see it at first so I had to crane my neck and risk killing some pedestrians on the road trying to get a good look at it ahahaha (luckily, no one died)

But yeah, this is the balcony. It's all super closed off and the windows are super secure in case anyone had the idea to commit suicide. ._.

The lounge area


The bedroom and ensuite


Camho opportunity :|




Rambo!


After dragging all our things in the apartment and getting settled, me and Lena had a frantic race to find the room with the ensuite. wahaha I beat her to it, the spa is mine! >:D
And then the mothers prepared roast duck and noodles and Lena prepared some hot green tea


After rolling around and settling in, me and Lena went shopping and unfortunately the weather was so windy and rainy I didn't bring my camera at all and didn't take pictures of anything. All we did was shop and then head back to the apartment to order cheesecake via room service. And then we rolled around and did practically nothing all night until we decided it was time to hop into the spa where we threw around bubbles and making a mess in the bathroom. Fun times were had.

Oh and while we were out, we found a little tattoo shop. Don't worry it's temporary ;)
I got a unicorn, because ponies are the best. And Lena got RDJ. Because she thinks Robert Downey Jr. is the best. (But I still think unicorns are better.)
 
 
 


derp, and then next morning we said goodbye to the coast and back to Brisbane. Thankfully the weather was better on the way home and for that weekend when me and my deer went to visit the aquarium... dun dun dun :3
