At Dreamworld we got to go in early, because we bought tickets through RACQ, which is different to RACV. The first ride was The Cyclone for Dad and Kate. I didn’t want to go on, so Mum stayed off with me. We went down and the next ride was Thunder River Rapids and we got wet, but it was fun. Next in line was the Log Ride.

Alex asked for the shovel to dig and Rod ended up digging his own hole, [View Full Entry]

What an amazing weekend we all had. We met Lee Pritchard working at the Airport Link in Brisbane, what a great find it was. Lee and Christopher invited us down to their house just before we left Brisbane to the luscious area of Paradise Point where they stay. We arrived on Saturday lunchtime and Lee drove us around the Island of Sovereign Hill which is where all the multi million dollar houses are - how jealous were we. The houses were massive and the boats were even bigger! We then drove around the gorgeous little town of Paradise Point which has [View Full Entry]
