Gold Coast: Beautiful Beach

Gold Coast which is located in southern part from Brisbane has a beautiful beach. We booked a backpacker hotel to stay there a night and get up early in the next day so we can enjoy all day in Gold Coast.

Arriving at Surfers Paradise of Gold Coast in the evening, we got into taking a nighttime walk around Gold Coast and had Kangaroo meat for dinner.

The next day, after we had the loose breakfast, we went surfing in bogy board. Unfortunately it was raining through out the morning, but I didn't care about it and enjoyed surfing in the beach. In the afternoon, the weather was getting better so we went up the top of the Q1 which is the tallest building in the Gold Coast to enjoy the breathtaking view.

Two consecutive days, I have been going beach in Gold Coast. This day, my host family took me to the Currumbin beach which was not big like Surfers Paradise but it had cozy mood. My host family and I had a comfort beach time.

The Night of the Brisbane City

It  has passed a week since I came to the Brisbane. I am gradually getting used to the Australian lifestyle. Australians usually go to bed early and get up early. They seldom sit up late. I also get up at 7:00 in the morning, but I go to bed a little late at 12:00. Not having faddy, I am trying to eat the every Australian food.

Yesterday, my friend invited me to have a steak in the city!! I have no reason to refuse it, so I decided to visit city. It was my second time to visit the city. Besides, it was night. Look at the picture. The night  view of the city is so wonderful. It is completely different from the day time. The shops are decorated with colorful neon. I totally get into the city and the steak. The steak was so big that I have never had such a huge size. Next time I want to try bony chops which is also a Australian food.

Panorama of the Brisbane river

My first trip was to visit the Brisbane City where has many shops and beautiful landscapes. We took the CityCat which is the ferry of the Brisbane river to go to the Brisbane City. The view of the river bank in the both side are unbliebably beautiful. The CityCat was so fast because it's catamaran boat which is the ship consisting of two hulls. The name of CityCat is derived from the the type of the boat 'catamaran'. It is never derived from the 'cat' which is the pets Australian likes

I went there with my friends and they took me around the City. In the city. Please look at the panorama of the Brisbane river. The river is so wide and has a good view. I went to the Southbank the riverside beach and bought some groceries for making the miso soup for my host family. I played with water and splash about with my friends. It was a lot of fun like I get back to my childhood. I enjoyed the City very much, but I couldn't go through the whole city. So I feel like to visit there next time also because there is no fun around the Uni.
