The Gold Coast
Posted by Emily on January 7, 2012
When we stay up in Queensland with my Nan and Pop we get to go to the beach lots and play in the sand and swim in the water. We go early in the morning or late in the afternoon when the sun doesn’t burn you so easily.
Swimming in the surf is lots of fun but you always have to be careful of currents so that you stay in between the red and yellow flags. When you’re in the water you have to look at the beach, at the waves and at the people around you so you are safe.
Today we saw some sandcastles being made, I think they are really nice sandcastles.

I love visiting the Gold Coast as well, Emily. We are down the southern end of the South Island of NZ and it does not get nearly as warm here as it did there. Having said that though, it looks like we are about to experience a drought. It is very hot and dry here. Even the fish are needing to be rescued! http://www.3news.co.nz/Dry-summer-frustrates-farmers-fishermen-down-south/tabid/1160/articleID/238601/Default.aspx#top

Hi Super7scoopers,
I like it how they’re moving the fish so they don’t die. I love visiting the Gold Coast as well, it’s fun and I like going to the theme parks. We go to one theme park per year.

Hi Em,
We made lots of sandcastles but none were as good as that one. I hope you get to go to the beach someday soon, swimming in the ocean is lots of fun except you have to get used to the salty water and the waves and it’s not fun getting dumped.
Bye!
