Gold Coast October 2013

We had a short break in Golad Coast in October. Work was extremely busy before the holiday (I was even working away on the Sat night before we got on the plane). At around the same time, Dad decided to pop in from overseas for a short stay and only left the night before our departure. I hardly had any time to pack let alone being excited about going away.

From our aparatment -

We stayed at a 2-bed serviced apartment on the 23rd floor at Broadbeach. I had this picture of us sitting on the balcony and enjoying the view in my head before we left but only realised how windy it was up there once we set foot on that balcony! I had to hold on to the rail in fear of beling blown away from the 23rd floor! The views were pretty good though(espeially at night).

Life in Gold coast was easy and relaxing. It involved coffee and park play early in the morning, followed by beach and lunch. Afternon was usually spent at the pool or back at the apartment to read or nap. There were many restaurants to choose from for dinner in walking distance and yummy gelato after (nearly) every dinner.

A great playground we only discovered the morning we left:(

The only (small) disappointment was the sea water was not as warm as we would like. The kids still ask when we will back so that is always a good sign that the week was well spent:)
