GOLD COAST 7

I woke up this morning in Mykonos style - sore throat ready to stay in bed all day. Dragging my ass out of bed we decided to stay local today and head over to Labrador for a late lunch. We have driven past Labrador before but haven't stopped.

We arrived in Labrador to spot a very small beachfront with only one seafood store on the park. It's off a main highway so it's not exactly the best place to relax.

Heading towards the beach we spot some windsurfers:



On the right side is a bunch of Pelicans walking around. It's like a pelican gang. There are tones of them.


In fact the pelicans look like they are about to attack someone. Hopefully one of these Asian tourists hahaha

Heading into the seafood shop, you come face to face with fresh crabs, lobsters and various fishs.

We grab a lunchbox each and head outside to find a table to eat on. Within minutes we are surrounded by Pelicans. You gotta love the pelicans. Knowing my luck one of them will attack me in no time!
Once we finish lunch we decide to cruise around town abit before heading to Broadbeach. We figured we should explore Broadbeach abit more indepth. The beach extends onto the main beach in Surfers Paradise.

While on Broadbeach I noticed this pissed off bird. Lets call it pissed off Christine if you like:
We eventually spot Broadbeach Mall. Were quite excited about it so we storm towards it. Just as we approach it, the rain begins so we race indoors.
In between check out the wiggly building at the back in the below photo!

Another tall exciting building at Broadbeach:


We race inside the mall to avoid the rain. It's a small shopping centre. Unfortunately there isn't really anything to look at so we settle down at a cafe for coffee and muffins.
Once the rain settles down we decide to leave to head back to the apartment but not before the entire family get caught up in buying raffle tickets for a car and then a house. I never actually believe in these things but my family decide to buy multiple tickets and then plan their future. Too funny!
