Enero 18 - 19 / January 18 - 19

En la mañana del 18 de Enero fuimos al mercado que habian puesto cerca al camping donde nos estabamos quedando.  Los agricultores de la zona traen sus productos; habia de todo, verduras, frutas, carne, queso, bebidas, etc.  Fue muy interesante ver que se produce en la zona.  Lo mas emocinante fue el guarapo… hecho igual que como en Colombia.  Compramos un litro para llevar y un vaso para tomar inmediatamente.

Despues nos fuimos a manejar por otros pueblos que la señora nos habia recomendado… nada del otro mundo!  En un punto tuvimos una bonita vista del Monte Warning.

Ahora vamos para la Costa Gold, mas especificamente e Surfers Paradise.  Paramos en un lugar que se llama la Roca Elefante de donde hay una vista muy bonita de un par de playas y los edificios de Surfers Paradise.

Despues paramos a hacer un BBQ de almuerzo en la Playa Tallebudgera… no le cabia un alma!

Llegamos a Surfers Paradise en la tarde y nos fuimos a caminar un rato.  En la noche estuvimos en el mercado que hacen al frente del mar; habia gente hasta de tres ojos, todo el mundo estaba alla, era una locura…

El 19 de Enero estuvimos caminando por la ciudad y estuvimos un rato en la playa.

En la tarde salimos para nuestro proximo destino… Brisbane.  Encontramos un camping con cara de resort.  Esta super lujoso, tiene de todo y un poquito mas, la piscina esta super, BBQ, duchas, etc.  No nos podemos acostumbrar a tanto lujo!

In the morning of January 18 we went to the local market, which was set up on the grounds of the campground we were staying at.  The local farmers were selling all the produce, as well as meat, cheese, drinks, etc.  It was interesting seeing everything they produce in the area.  The most exciting thing was the sugar cane juice they had… it was exactly the same as the one we had years ago back home.  We bough a litre to take with us and a glass to have immediately.

We then went for a drive around some towns in the area, which the lady at the information centre recommended… nothing exciting to report!  We did have a nice view of Mount Warning again.

We are now heading towards the Gold Coast, more specifically Surfers Paradise.  We stopped at a place called Elephant Rock where we had a beautiful view of the beach and Surfers Paradise buildings.

We then stopped for BBQ lunch at Tallebudgera Beach… it was packed!

We arrived at Surfers Paradise in the afternoon and went for a walk around town and the beach.  In the evening we went to the local market along the beach.  Everybody in town was there, it was crazy…

On January 19 we went for another walk around town and spent some time at the beach.

We left in the afternoon for our next destination… Brisbane.  We found a resort like campground.  This place has everything and a bit more, the pool is amazing, BBQ, nice showers, etc.  We feel spoiled with such luxury!
