Sunshine Coast

Hey everyone! Well we have uploaded a butt load of photo's for everyone to check out... got a bunch of surfers, and some we added today of our little trip up the sunshine coast and of the Australia Zoo. This is Erynns Asia Pose... long story.

This past week we have been looking for work around surfers (key word - looking as in none found yet). After a few days of that we rented a convertable for 3 days!! It was awesome!! I drove on the wrong side of the road and didnt even wreck anything, Erynn didnt want to attempt it yet... mostly cause we wouldnt have been covered if she did drive (thats what she says anyway).

So The first day we dropped off resume's all over then continued down the Gold coast to Byron bay. it was a nice place, but seemed a little small. The beach didnt even compare to Surfers.

The next day we went inland a bit to the Glass Mountains in the Hinterland region. It was so beautiful and made it a little difficult to keep my eye's on the road... Erynn helped with that. Once we got to the top of the range we went for a walk in a rainforest. That was really neat, the tree's were huge and the roots were so strange.

After that we came down the mountain and went to the Australia zoo and saw Steve Irwins memorial. It was nice to see all the things people had left behind. Plus I got to touch a camel - see photo. We were only there for about 20mins cause it was $43 each to get in and we still had lots of driving to do. We are going to hit that up another time when we can spend the whole day there.

From there we went back into the coast to Noosa Heads. Its a resort town full of rich people. Basically it was like Banff in the tropics. Nice to visit though. We went for a walk in the national park there. There were some awesome views, and I guess dolphins that come and feed every morning and evening... we were there in the afternoon... : (

So after that we drove down the Sunshine Coast and headed back home. Just before we got to Brisbane there was a freak storm with pouring rain and 90km/hr winds!! Fun stuff, so we drove another 150kms on a 4 lane highway. These Aussies drive crazy too!! everyone was going like 110 through that stuff!! Our little convertable made it though, safe and sound.

Well thats about it for now, we are going to go and apply for some more jobs today, then maybe hit up the beach and wait for some phone calls... hopefully. Dont forget to post comments too!!
