Finally we got a chance to take some photographs on the inside of the apartment. The owner of this apartment is very friendly, appearantly she bought the place for later when she retired.
Inside the apartment, they provide cooking utensils, toiletries, there's washing machine, dryers, and towels.
This particular apartment is on level 6, so, the view is just alright...
After a big breakfast, we're off to Tamborine Mountain. This is one of the tourist destination, so, the road is a lot better then Springbrooks'.
The first stop was the walking track of McDonald Rainforest Circuit, it was the easiest track there, and unfortunately there wasn't much to see.
Went to Cedar Creek Falls after that, again, to see waterfall :-)
We're very fortunate to come across a pair of kookaburra birds (I think they're sunbathing... or waiting to be fed!)
And our way back to main area of Mt Tamborine, guess what? BUSHFIRE! Oh dear.... it was a bit scary, the temperature was around 29-30 degrees that day. And the poor firefighters, they look really exhausted. We've never been to close to fire, so, it was quite scary. Even from inside the car, we can feel the heat, it was reaaalllyyy hot!!! Smoke is everywhere to be seen, you can see the trees and the grass turned black after the burnt. Wow.. It's amazing how easy it was for this fire to start.
But, we continued on our way, that was pass lunch time so we were really hungry :-) hee hee
The traffic was slow because of the bush fire.
Stopped by at this small shop that sells Chillean Pies - Yummy... I didn't actually used the fork and knife, just tried to be more lady like for the camera, LOL...
After that we just walked around in that small village area where all the shops are.This is in front of a shop that sells Germany Cuckoo Clock. I would go to Germany if I want to buy a Germany Cuckoo Clock! But, anyways, I still posed in front of the store, LOL....
Right! So, with full stomach, we continued our journey to the Glowworm Cave. You guys every heard of glowworms before? I'll post a separate blog explaining these amazing creatures. Love them so much... Cameras are not allowed inside the cave as they're sensitive to light and noise. So, that's me, in front of the man-made cave:
And, that's it folks... we drove back to Surfers Paradise, just in time to see the market:
We had to hurry back home and get ready for dinner. We tried this restaurant in Surfers Paradise, Daniel's Steakhouse. It's a Japanese restaurant.
The photographs are a bit lack of lighting, so, I'd better not put them up. :-)Surfers Paradise on Friday night was crazy... The pubs are full of people, drinking, of course... What else do you do in a pub?!
I thought the retail stores will open till late, but, they're not.
We tried to go to Woolworths to buy some fruits, but, guess what, they're closed!! LOL...
It was 10pm at night.
So, we just headed back home and decided to try the indoor swimming pool :-)
