This was the last full days of our trip in Brisbane. We designed to have a Hot-air Balloon trip in early morning. However, it was cancelled due to the bad weather. 

We then decided to rent a full size 4 doors car at Avis to drive to Gold Coast. 

Gold Coast was too commercial and have lots of tourists.  As this was not planned, we just try to have an ad hoc itinerary.  The first place we visit was the Outlet.  However, that was really a Outlet.  All the goods were overpriced. We then proceed to our next station - Surfers Paradise!  The coastal line was very very long for the Surfers Paradise but except this, nothing special.  The weather was not good and actually I think the beach in Tasmania was much beautiful and stunning than the Surfers Paradise.

As this was our last day of stay, we decided to have a seafood buffet no matter it was so expensive. We've the buffet at the Rez 252 Restaurant at Courtyard Marriott Gold Coast and it costed each of us AUD$39 without a drink.

Our honeymoom trip have came to an end and we all didn't want to back to HK.
