Day Five - 2/4

Today was the day we left Brisbane and headed on down to the Gold Coast. First we headed to Yatala Pies for lunch. They are a famous pie shop in the town called Yatala, which is along the way to the Gold Coast. The pies were nice, but not fantastic I thought. I bought the Lamb Coconut Curry, so perhaps I just got a dud :)  

We had to drive up this bridge to exit Brisbane and head to the Gold Coast! Crazy!

After our stop for lunch we headed to Mt Tamborine. It was rather an odd feeling going there as we spent 30 minutes going up winding roads with nothing but forest around us, so hitting the peak and finding a town up there! The views were fantastic, we could even see all the way to the Gold Coast! We were going to do a couple of the walks, but when we tried to find parking, there was NONE! So instead we decided to just head straight to the Gold Coast.

We went straight to our accommodation as Vanessa, Luke and Ethan were already there. After unloading all of our stuff, we headed for a walk down to the beach, went to the pub and then walked home. We decided to go check out Hard Rock Cafe for dinner. We got completely lost trying to find our way into the place, but we eventually got there LOL.
