I left my house super early this morning and walked to the train station (about 20 minutes):
It looked like it was going to be a good day with bright blue skies!
So I got on the train, and two stops later, my friend, Lan, got on as well, and we were on our way!
The train ride from Brisbane to the Gold Coast is maybe 45 - 60 minutes, but from the time I left my house, until the time I was on the beach was about 2 hours. (We took 2 buses to get from the train station to Burleigh Heads.)
So I figured I was going to be slick and climb on the rocks without taking my shoes off (unlike Lan, who was smart), and I was pretty careful until one foot slipped, and I dunked it in the ocean. In my sock and shoe. Boo =\
After I learned my lesson:
Lan:
Then we walked for a bit until we were hot, and Lan convinced me to go in the freezing ocean. (OK, maybe it wasn't freezing, but it sure felt like it when you first got in. But then I got used to it.)
And we jumped in the waves, and swam a little, and had a good time!
Then we came back to dry out on the sand:
And then we walked some more:
Somehow, we were magically transported back to Miami!:
Next we went to Pacific Fair, a pretty big mall, with indoor and outdoor shops, and being girls, we had to go shopping! (Especially since there were "Sale" signs!) So this is what I bought:
All the shopping was making me hungries! So Lan and I wandered inside to the food court, where I had a meat pie, and she had a sandwich:
And we shared other, healthier food, like apples. And cookies. =D
After that, it was starting to get late, so we ventured back home.
