Off to Gold Coast!!!! This was the boarding pass.Pretty cool piece of paper with a bar code which allows you to travel from one state to another.The landing of this flight was pretty bad...my ears cant take the pressure difference well,and the whole night i was practically half deaf from sounds of the world.

Sneaked a shot with the plane =P

Whats with the sad face....=( You've gotten your beloved triple cheeseburger isnt it?One in the afternoon,one at night,man...you can really consider opening your own burger chain and promote all the cheese and beef burgers you love.

Yes,I've managed to meet up with dear soofeng in gold coast!Across the ocean,on another continent,yes,we've managed to get together and have a wonderful day at dreamworld.We arranged to meet at 11am on thurs,as her dear friend didnt want to accompany her to dreamworld and to leave her to enjoy the park herself...weird.Anyways,she was already at the park entrance when wen haw and i were still looking for a car rental company to rent a car.The best offer from 'Thrifty' car rental was a manual car at 1.30pm.I was like...!!!???OMG....soofeng is so gonna be so alone alone at the park entrance waiting and waiting and waiting for hours.That was not good news.We walked around somemore with the help of our gps,and founded 'Europcar' company,which offered us a car that could be taken off instantly,but the moment she said 'credit cards only',my heart sank...thinking 'thats it for soofeng'...she has to continue waiting for me there alone.As we walked out of the shop,thankfully wen haw reminded us that my nus debit card could be the saviour.Thankfully,it could be used!I was really glad...really really glad.We've made a wrong move right from the beginning where we didnt take up the car at the airport,but luckily we are able to rent a car now...instantly.

Back to wildlife!Kangaroos!!!Its been at least a ten year since i last saw a live kangaroo i suppose...They are a bit lazy....lying around,looking sleepy,and are opened to the public,not locked up in cages or anything.I didnt dare to touch one though...seemed a bit......

Looks cute isnt it?But the real truth,it kindna stinks. =P wen haw calls it the 'koalala....'Der....its the first time i'm actually seeing a real koala though.The bear seemed to be clinging on to soofeng for his dear life.

Who dared to put me in jail!

$6.95 for this hotdog bread....thankfully it tasted pretty good...or maybe because i'm real hungry. It was the largest hotdog bread i've eaten in my entire life i think...but without the help of soofeng,i think i wouldnt have finished it.Thank you for buying the coke too!It adds the special sweetness to the meal.mMmm..

Spongebob and patrick! Luckily we managed to get a picture together with them...=)Its all why we came to dreamworld in the first place isnt it? Lance,yes,you may crop your photo in with your beloved spongebob.hahas.

Pretty cold when it comes to the night,but scorching sun when the day comes...my skin's drying!!!NOOOOooooo.... I love this picture though...it seems like we are really in a chilly country,enjoying the moment.We had pizza,pasta and burgers at an italian restaurant that night,and it was the first time i saw rain in australia while having dinner.

Surf's up! Hahs...i really feel that i'm in a winter like country.

Surfers paradise after a wonderful dinner at a restaurant...its just lovely with the cool weather,sitting on the streets having a satisfying meal. =)

Dearest soofeng and me at pacific fair shopping. Didnt buy anything there though.One funny sight we caught there was that the bank had a dragon mascot,with 2 bank officers bringing the mascot around to promote the bank...a bit ridiculous in my eyes.hahas.

Are you seeing things?No,you're not. We are on the way to brisbane after doing some shopping at harbour town which is a place with plenty of direct factory outlets and apparel stores!

Look at the cute yellow car we rented...manual car...its scary on slopes and worse when the engine stalls....reminds me of the past where yihui and i would excitedly discuss about our driving experiences.Pretty good car which brought us all the way from surfers paradise to brisbane,and saved us loads of money on taxis!

On the beach!Its a weird feeling to be on the beach with cold chilly wind blowing on your face while the scorching hot sun burns through your skin.I was practically stoning while absorbing the atmosphere and scenery the whole morning on the beach.

Homeless? Or......

The beaches and waves you can never find it in Singapore...they are just too beautifuL! Waves waves and waves....arghhhh!!!the beauty is killing me! Cant your eyes get any bigger?! opps!

Bread anyone?

what we could have been, 10:16 PM.
