I like this place, and willingly could waste my time in it.--- William Shakespeare


Surfers Paradise is still as amazing as i remembered from last time. Blue sea and blue sky, surfers and skyscrapers on the beach. Could stay here much longer, I love beach and sea and surfing. After enjoying fantastic sunset on the beach, we decided to get started our little holiday with nice dinner.


Charlie and Dee

We checked in in hostel, had a shower and went to club, which suppose to be very good and popular in surfers. But unfortunately we had to disappoint in this place. We didn't let this little thing to ruin our night and still enjoyed our good company. Me and Dee got little bit tipsy and boys had some laugh at us. Well u have to let it go sometimes, don't u...

We had really late morning and huge breakfast. Few minutes later after renting our surfboards we were struggling with big messy waves. Too messy and too strong current didn't let us to enjoy as much as we planned. We spending more time fighting with these waves then surfing on them. We were still extremely happy to be in water although we couldn't catch as many waves we wanted to.

For evening we planned to have Charlies birthday dinner in Hard Rock Coffee, were we all hurted our self eating too much but couldn't say no either to too good food. Dee and Charlie decided to play mini golf after dinner, me and Danny decided to have movie night back in hostel. We all agreed to have few drinks late night but all crushed in bed very early.

Second-day-surf we decided to have in another beach, because waves there suppose to be calm and best ones for beginners like us. Aussie brekkie finished, we driving to Currumbin beach to have better surf we had day before. We got our boards straight from beach and we got them cheaper then from Surfers Paradise beach. I thought I'm use to with cold weather and decided to go into water without wetsuit again, but this time it was mistake and i got cold really quick.

Surf could start, amazing surf, amazing waves but too many people wanted to have same wave same time. I was too scared most of times to surf because it was too crowded.

Long day behind driving back to 'surfers', we had one more thing we had to try - Sling Shot. Me and Dee were brave enough to try this. Cant explain what it is, but its one of these attraction park things. We had two rides, second one was only 10 dollars. At the end these guys there earned 100 dollars in few minutes.


Few seconds before going up

Its completely dark and we still in 'surfers'. Just don't wanna admit our holiday is getting over. Our arriving home should be really late at night so we decided to have dinner in surfers and finish our holiday properly. Nice Italian restoran gonna be our last stop in 'surfers'. Everybody are so hungry that we order obviously too many dishes in our table. Luckily we have take away option.....We bring Danny to Nerang train station and start driving back to Warwick.

Huge dinner


At midnight we arrive to our little down, busiest at this weekend. They had big event going on, 'Jumpers and Jazz Festival'. It was impossible to find any accommodation for night. So we had to spend our night in van, all three of us. Back in our little caravan park little kangaroos army were waiting us. They were so brave and didn't move even we were loud and went really close to make some pictures. Surprisingly we spent comfortable night in van. Working week could start again!
