Friday 8th February We were supposed to be checking out today but due to the dates clashing with Coffs Harbour's hostel, we had to stay for an extra night in Surfer's Paradise. The sun were still shining so we basically did the same routine as yesterday's, sunbathing/swimming but to Daniel's disappointment, the spa was unavailable. We did also play tennis for a hour which was better than yesterday, no puddles in the way this time! Once Daniel had enough, he ...

Thursday 7th February The sun were shining through our patio doors and we were pleased to see that the weather was finally lovely! We haven't had much luck with the weather lately as it seems to us that the rain loves following us each time we visit each place down on the coast!

The only thing we were disppointed that we couldn't go was to visit the water park as we ha...

Monday 4th February Our coach wasn't til 4:30pm this afternoon so we had a lie in before we checked out at 10am. As we have checked out, we put our rucksacks into the luggage store for security. Most of the morning, we were just resting in the lounge room and catching up with our friend on MSN chat via webcam. After our long good chats, we thought it was time to leave hostel at 12pm and walked to the bus transit centre as it would be a lot cooler there than our...
