Sea World, Gold Coast

Today, we will be heading to Sea World, one of the 3 popular Worlds in Gold Coast. I am pretty excited about it as we were here 10 years ago just the two of us but now, we are back again with our little one.

When we arrived, there was a long queue at all the counters even the group lane was crowded but it did not take us long to get our tickets to enter. I would say that there were lots of changes compared to our visit a decade ago.

They had added many themes like Dinosaurs Park, Sponge Bob etc. The dinosaurs were pretty impressive as they looked really REAL and the sound effects from the sides were good too. It looked so real that it somehow scared Faith quite a bit. She was crying almost immediately when we entered the park but we tried to sooth her down and managed to walk through it.

On the other side of the Dinosaurs Park, it was an area for the kiddos. There were train rides, the carousel and other rides. We went ahead to take some of the rides while the elderly took rest under the shade. While riding some of the rides, it seemed like flashback to childhood days though they were pretty much different.

After lunch, we were having so much fun at the game stall where everyone including the elderly was joining us for some of the games like throwing rings to the bottles, netting the basketball, spraying target to move up dolphins etc… 

The dolphin show was really interesting and enjoyable to watch. I was very much hoping that Faith could catch the show but she was already alseep before the show even started.

Time passed really fast when you are having so much fun and it was time to leave the Sea World. The journey back to our hotel was pretty short and after refreshing ourselves, we went for an early dinner.

Hard Rock Café located near our hotel was our dinner venue. Though we were a group of fifteen, it did not take them long to get us seated but it took quite a while for our food to be served. Hubby and I enjoyed our fajitas very much while Faith had her macaroni & cheese. Everyone enjoyed HRC food including the elderlies. 

Thumps up!
