Summer Holiday at The Gold Coast - Surfer's Paradise!


Hi again,we have just arrived back from a week on the Gold Coast staying in the middle of Surfer's Paradise. Paul's parents Keith and Jean came with us and seemed to enjoy the week despite the Dorsett pace and Keith's sunstroke on the 4th day! Paul and I were able to run along the beach each morning and actually had a meal out without kids so can't be bad. We visited Sea World, Wet and Wild, the Outback Experience and the Australia Zoo (Steve Urwin fame) and had a hot hot day in Brisbane all which were fantastic and highly recommended. Highlights for all of us were the Dolphins - wow!!!! Girls all want to be Dolphin Trainers or Zoo Keepers now...... Back in lovely Canberra now and actually delighted that we have chosen the right City to live in - no traffic and no humidity!

Hey Guys, looks like you had a fantastic time on the coast. Hope your Mum and Dad are well Paul. I notice Paul that there are no pictures of you in the Zoo, is this because there was an embarassing mistaken identity, lock you up, turn you into an exhibit type of moment? Miss you all loads, will Skype real soon, Lots of love, The Johnsons xxxxx
