We were finally on the Gold Coast and stayed at an apartment right on the beach with a swimming pool. We got to see lots of friends and family and saw my Moms friend Melinda from Nepal too. We got to have a big swim in the ocean with the kids!! We said goodbye to them again at a cafe and we all had iced chocolates!
The next day we caught up with my Aunty Kate and cousin Lake and again went for a swim in the ocean. The next day I slipped into my Moms shoes and went to Seaworld. She used to come here alot when she was a kid. We saw two shows, the dolphin show and the sealion show. The best was the dolphin show! We only got to go on one ride that day as some did not work, so my Mom told the people and we got return tickets for the next day! So I got to go on a roller coaster that did three loops and one big drop.

I loved the Gold Coast and wish we could have stayed longer. We did heaps of fun stuff. We saw so many peacocks too one day. My favourite animal!!
On the way back we stopped at Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary. It’s basically a zoo. Forst we got a picture taken with a koala, ten we went to see a crocodile show. We then got to feed the kangaroos, there so cute. We went to an amazing bird show they had like 7 or 8 different types of birds. We saw sheep shearing – it was so funny!. Last but not least we saw an aboriginal show. They played the didgeridoo. We continued our trip back to Yamba.
We had Christmas on the beach! Our first Xmas in the heat! First we opened all the presents, then we went for a swim and then we came back to the beach with the picnic stuff. We made a sandman – it was cool! We watched a movie when we got home.
Yamba ... my secondary home. I have loved the ocean waves and sandy beaches. Nothing is better than Australia! I loved spending time with my Nana. She has spoilt me with ice cream and fun-ness! I loved going into the village shopping with her and looking at shells and games and music boxes. I will miss her alot but we will see her in Canada real soon!
Australia has lots of wonderful animals and nature everywhere you turn. I want to come back one day. Definitely.
