Gold Coast, Australia; 15-19 December 2008

Vacation Downunder

Its year end holiday again and this year, after much deliberations, it was decided that the destination was Gold Coast, Australia... but this time, its only me & Adin


Adin at KLIA waiting to board the flight to Singapore and will fly to Gold Coast on Qantas.

At Brisbane Airport... Very early in the morning. Still sleepy.


Since its still early, our luggages were sent to the hotel and we went on to the first stop - Paradise Country Farm. Even the koalas were still sleeping... This is the only picture of Adin with animals as he can't stand the smell of the animal enclosure...



Cute little koalas

At least the kangaroos were awake...

Adin doing his thing... playing games with iPod plugged in his ears



Managed to get Adin out in the Australian summer sun....
