AUSTRAHLIA Part I - Introduction and Gold Coast

G'day mates! ^^

Well, the news is - I am in Australia! To be more specific, in Brisbane and the Gold Coast!

We came in my plane on 6th July and we had a stopover in Sydney. As we came in to Sydney, I saw the Harbour Bridge and the Opera House. I lost the photos though so I just got a similar photo from the net:

That was really cool... Yep, and then we went over to Brisbane and I can tell you: QANTAS Service is really good! Did you know that QANTAS stands for "Queensland and Northern Territory Air Services"?

Well, after all, we arrived here at our Motel called the "Quest Ascot" in Ascot, Brisbane! It's really nice and I've never seen so many palm trees at once!

Then, I spent two days with Matthew at his Nana's appartment in Surfers Paradise on the Gold Coast which was really terrific! The beach was so close and we had a fantastic view on both the Pacific Ocean and the pool which reminded me of the luxury resorts in Fiji!

Here's a photo selection:

Me at the beach in Surfers Paradise

The pool at the "Oriana"

The view from the 77th floor of the "Q1" (=Queensland 1) - the highest residential tower of the world: 332.5 metres

So that was the first part of my stay here in Australia but there's still more to come!!! Look forward to "Skating and Shopping" and "Warner Bros. Movie World" =)

Yours
