Broadbeach

Yesterday we drove to Jupiters in Broadbeach where we’ll spend the next few days. The chauffeur-driven car was worth more than my house and was quite an experience!

That’s Broadbeach, looking north towards Surfers Paradise. The beach seems to go forever in both directions and as you can see the day was lovely. We walked north in the dry heat…

This is a very popular tourist destination and there’s zillions of people here – both Australians and foreign tourists. Surfers Paradise itself is full of the same tourist attractions you see in places such as this and I’m sure we’ll check some of them out.

That’s me trying out a ‘laser maze’. I did well, only breaking 3 of 14 lasers, but even at the easy setting had to contort myself a bit. This was at a giant arcade (Timezone) with all sorts of fun games 🙂

The famous ‘meter maids’! Somewhat sadly the calendar they were selling was a 2015 version (!) but they happily posed for photos (for $5). Interestingly neither of them were Australian…

I wonder what I was looking at?

As I said we’re staying in the casino and the rooms are large and very comfortable. A good base from which to explore this place!
