We arrived at the Coolangatta Airport just before 8am in the morning on Thursday, March 19, 2009. We bought the Freedom Pass for the airport and theme park transfers with unlimited travel on the local bus Surfside Buslines. Then we took the GC Shuttle service direct to our apartments.
The Seacrest Beachfront Holiday Apartments located at the corner of Higman St and Main Beach Parade. Our 2 bedrooms self-contained apartment is at level 4, fully equipped with cooking and laundry facilities. There were electrical hobs, microwave oven, convection oven, toaster, dishwasher, fridge & freezer, washing machine, dryer, etc.
We reached our apartment around 10.30am to leave our baggage at the concierge. However, we were told by the lovely old lady who man the counter that we can check-in early, around 12.30pm (supposed to be after 2pm). So we did some adjustment to our itinerary and cancel our plan to go to Chirn Park for the halal meat and lunch at the Sayang Malaysian restaurant there. Instead, we just walk along the Esplanade towards Cavill Avenue and had lunch at Theo's Kebab.
At the Cavill Avenue, we bought the discounted Escape Pass for our theme parks excursion. The pass allowed 2 theme parks entrance in 3 days. We planned to go to Sea World and Movie World. Then, we caught a bus back to our apartment for check-in.
View from our balcony looking south towards Surfers Paradise.
View from our balcony facing the Pacific Ocean.
View from our balcony looking north towards David Evans Reserve.
The Living Room, TV with Foxtel.
Resting a while along the Esplanade.
In the afternoon, we went out again to Surfers Paradise. We went to Woolworth at Centro to buy some groceries. Amazingly, we bought food for 5 breakfasts and 5 dinners (full one trolley) only cost us AUD150. That's about 1 breakfast and 1 dinner if we eat at a restaurant. Then we headed back to our apartment to cook dinner and rest.
Good nite and see you again in Day 2...
