The Gold Coast

We arrived at the gold coast early afternoon on Good Friday. We were meet at the airport by Arnold and Ros. They will be on the Dawn Princess World Cruise also. They took us to our condo in Broadbeach to get checked in and then they took us to their home for dinner. They live in a lovely area, which is a gated community on a golf course, which is also a kangaroo sanctuary. They took us on a golf cart ride and we saw our first Kangaroo's. There are approx. 300 wild kangaroos roaming around. It was amazing to see the kangaroo's close up. We also saw Black Swans which are rare. We want to thanks Arnold and Ros for their gracious hospitality, taking us to their home and showing us around. On Saturday we went to Broadbeach, the Ocean is beautiful and the sand was soft. There are a lot of people here because it is Easter Holiday. Beside Christmas, Easter is the biggest holiday in Australia.
