Gold Coast 2 - Dreamworld

after two days of exploring Surfer's Paradise and staying in our little apartment (shown below) we finally headed out for some serious theme park fun

Shortly after arriving, zeke and i ran to the giant drop (okay, okay, i had to be persuaded and even then i walked away from it and then suddenly turned around and didnt think about it and just boarded the mothafcker)

hey, come on. cut me some slack.

it IS the world's tallest and fastest freefall ride (imagine free falling 393 feet) at 135 km per hours with ~ 40 seconds wait time at the tip to contemplate and wonder when you're actually gonna die.

anyway, after that shaky ride (i swear, my knees wouldnt stay upright after that) zeke (being the thoughtful little thing he is) decided that we should go for an easy sweet ride after that.

what better than the log ride.

a pretty long waiting time which was spent taking pictures and camwhoring like the sad little asian tourists we were



fone would think that this ride is reasonably safe. IT IS NOT.

i swear to you.

isaac was holding my hand while we were going down and as our log hit the bottom, isaac (unknowingly) dragged my arm down and knocked it hard against the log and i swear i lost feeling in it for a good half hour.

i thought it was broken!

and i was kinda annoyed at him but zeke said sorry and i sulked around a little (girl ma, must sulk la!) and the pampered me a little and all was well again.

i know, i am such an evil girlfriend.

anyway, we then headed over to tigerland but managed to see some other cute things on the way

before we saw cute little cubs before watching the tiger show (which there are too many pictures for so if you want to see most of them go to facebook)













then we were suppose to go on the Tower of Terror (i went on it when i was 12) and for the whole day i was wanting to go on it and telling zeke that he has to give it a try and all that crap but we were hungry so we headed off to get some food and water into our roaring and growling bellies.

anyway, started to line up for Tower of Terror and the stupid rattling of the walls scared the bejebus out of it.

anyway, mid way of the wait i really needed to pee.

come boarding the ride.. i REALLY REALLY needed to pee.

and i was scared shitless so those two were DEFF not a good combination.

so after they fastened my seatbelts..

I FLIPPED OUT MAJORLY AND ASKED THEM TO STOP THE RIDE AND I JUMPED OUT AND RAN AWAY.

yes.

that was embarassing as hell.

after waiting half an hour and sitting next to a little kid who couldnt have been more than 12, i flipped out and ran off to take the lift down.

(with zeke running behind me even though i told him to stay)

okay. i didnt ran away. i was TOO scared to even run.

anyway, the MOST embarassing part was that i even had to wait for the elevators to come and by the time it did, the ride was over for everyone else who were gushing about it and this nice old man said, "its okay" or sumthing along those lines that sounded so much better than the groans and moans and dirty and more superior looks i got from everyone else.

anyway, we then headed off to walk around Dreamworld



and nearly got on Cyclone (but the line was too long - it WASNT because of me flipping out and needing to pee) but then headed off to WhiteWaterWorld for some wet fun.

ew, not that way you pervert!

until the wet post..

kisses~
