So the next day we decided to head out to Wet and Wild, or as Keir likes to call it- Moist and Merry.
This was not as enjoyable as we thought it would be.
We arrived around midday and got into the grounds all safely and stuff. There were people everywhere, this should have tipped us off immediatly.
So we line up to go on one of the basic waterslides not realising that it would take us over 30mins just to slie down a hot tube at 10k/m per hour... quite anticlimatic.
Next we decided to head to the wave pool for abit... which didnt have any waves in it. It wasnt untill after we had gotten out of the pool after a while that we found out the pool worked in 10 minute cycles.
So we wondered round for a bit.. seeing that all of the rides and slides had massive line ups for them, and we really couldnt be bothered to wait, so we went and got some lunch and left.
This park probably would have been more enjoyable on a less busy day, but due to it being a time when every young family was out to sit under an umbrella while there child was half drowning in a puddle of urine, sweat and water, it was just too full of people for us to bother sticking around.
that night being NYE we headed back to Brisbane and got some takeout from a excellent little indian place then headed back to Keirs for a bit. From there we headed out to a house party in this beautiful house that fronted the river. From the house we could walk down a short slope with a path lit by candles and bush rising around us onto a private pontoon on the Brisbane river... it really was beautiful and almost breathtaking.
So we did new years in style. Which was nice instead of my usual NYE tradition, which is me asleep before the year even changes over.
Today we chilled out. Nick and i went to see Slumdog millionaire which was touchign film about a boy and his life growing up as a pauper in Mumbai and beyond and how he could win the big load on Who want to be a millionaire.
All this time i have been having multiple showers just to watch the layers upon layers of sweat that seem to be appearing on my skin.... by the end of this i had better have the most beautiful skin in the world.. or else.
