22nd May - Carrara Market, Tropical Fruit Farm, Broachbeach

Its the weekend and we are heading to Carrara Market - the biggest and best permanent markets in Queensland which opens every sat & sun from 7am to 4pm. We arranged to meet early at 8.30am so we can have breakfast together. I have pancakes while meimei has her favorite hotdog and both of us shared a cup of hot chocolate. After the hearty breakfast, we walked around the market to check for good bargains and Daddy bought for me a tinkerbell sweatsuit.....and its in my favorite color - purple. We left the market at about 12noon and headed to the next stop - Tropical Fruit Farm which is approximately 2hrs drive away.

After the good afternoon nap cum drive, we finally reached the destination located at NSW. After getting the admission tickets, we wait for the big tractor ride to bring us around the farm. We get to see a lot of tropical fruits and even had a try at cracking the macadamia nuts....its so fun. Then, we moved along to the plantation safari, had a try on the mini train ride, jungle riverboat cruise where we get to feed the ducks and ended the tour with the fruit tasting show. Yummy! We left the place at about 4pm and headed back to Gold Coast.

Still feeling fresh & alert, we decided to check out the beach which is just a mere 5 mins walk away. Aunty M packed Irvin's sand toys and we have our fun building sandcastle and taking pictures.

Dinner tonite is pizza and kebabs in our room.....and more pecan nut cracking and dora movie. Its so relaxing....oooo, I just love holidays.
