Spring Holidays

Spring Holidays
I'm on my school holidays - for 2.5 weeks! I went to the Gold Coast (Brisbane) We drove our car (it was 2 days of driving) On the way there we stopped at a few beaches - the sand was really soft, like in Destin, Florida!
My hotel was across the street from a beach so every day we went to the beach. We got Body Surfing Boards - it was fun when we rode the Body Boards in the Ocean. There was this Gelati place across the street that we always went to.
I went to the Croc Hunters Zoo - at the Zoo I kind of got to hold a Koala. I got a good picture. The best thing about that Zoo is the animals are able to walk around the Zoo - like the Kangaroos, you go in and pet them - it is so nice! There was a wombat on a leash getting a walk. The tigers were really cute and there were two trainers in their play yard snuggling with them and playing too. It was a little sad seeing the flowers, stuffed crocodiles and long row of Khaki shirts that people signed in memory of Steve Irwin. His picture is everywhere in the Zoo. The Crocodile Show was very cool! Those crocodiles are big! Have you seen Bindi's commercial yet? She was on Nicolodeon for Kids Choice awards. She was!
We went to Dreamworld - sort of like 6 Flags, there was a Wiggles area that Elijah really liked - he rode in the Big Red Car! It was fun. There were Koalas and Kangaroo petting there also.
We went to a Rain Forest. There were loads of parrots. They came and sat on your hand if you had food. They came and sat on your head and scared you! It was really fun. That was my favorite part of my vacation. On the way home
On the way home we stopped at a place called Byron Bay which is the most Eastern point in Australia, there is a lighthouse - you can see really far - sometimes you can see whales, we didn't see any, but it was pretty.
Tommorrow I start term 4 and get to wear my summer dress!
