Route:
Arrived Gold Coast Airport -> Get car -> breakfast@coolangatta -> drive to Brisbane -> rest -> dinner@Hog's Breath Cafe -> Mt Coot-tha



Early morning.... snowing? Cold~


Landed at 7:08am... but we only manage to get out from custom at around 8:50am. We cant get the guy who we book the car with... Alfonso's hp is no roaming... maybe that guy was waited so long and can't contact Alfonso... so he decided to leave. Well, they were not answer our call so Alfonso decided to rent a car from airport. There have few options for us to choose... we go for 'Budget Car'... the price is a bit higher than what we have booked (of course)... AUD160 vs AUD 227. No choice, we picked it. All the rental car is parked out side the airport car park. Very convenient and systematic.


This is the car that we rent.


9:35am-Breakfast@Sweet talk cafe, Coolangatta. Outside raining, very lightly rain. No many people along the street and sea... Maybe is Sunday... a lot people won't get up so early... rest~


Total amount - AUD39.70. Overall, quite nice. Feel warm to take a hot choc in such cold weather.


Along the way go to Brisbane


Aunty Jenny's house. We took a rest until 5:30pm... i slept a lot :p Sky is getting dark.


After taken shower, we go for dinner. Timmy brough us go for the best steak in the town - Hog's breath Cafe@Petrie.


They all ordered steak except me... I ordered fish fillet. It was nice... and the steak they ordered also very nice... that's why the price also looks GOOD!


After dinner, Timmy took us go too Mt Coot-tha (view point)... light rain and feel cold.


Then, we went the 'bear house' where offer a reasonal price for all wine and bear. We bought some... see, Alfonso feel so excited... got his best friend here :p
The one in green is pieapple vodka... i think. Taste nice.
