Gold Coast #6

Always using the spare time i have at work to update this space. Thank god for having a blog because i'd be bored to death in the office. I always tell my friends that my office is like a hypnosis chamber. The moment you step in, you feel like sleeping. I'm back to blog about GC day 6. I'm warning you that there will be an influx of pictures of horses haha. It was my first time riding a horse and the moment was... almost magical. I was a little scared at first but my horse, Vulcan, was a good boy. I love him :( Sometimes i'll look through my photo albums when i'm bored and i always wish i could go back to Australia.

It is located at Woodstock Farm. You can go and google Woodstock farm horse riding trail for more info :)



We were greeted by these ponies the minute we got out of the car.

The white one was my favourite. You know how prince charming always arrives on a white majestic horse? Lol i was picturing it in my head when i saw it, except that my prince charming wasn't there. 




We had some paperwork to do before we could proceed with the horse riding trail. While waiting for them to get our horses, we spotted this cat. It was so fluffy omg. Too cute :') I believe the cat belongs to the farm because i could tell it was well taken care of. 



They took about an hour to get 5 horses and 1 pony so we got to play with the kitty for really long. And when they brought in the horses one by one, we immediately went to our respective horses to take some photos! 


This was June's horse, Zeus. 

 My baby Vulcan!!!


 Alex's white pony, the same one that we saw at the entrance.




Johnny and his horse, Captain. 

Can you spot me?





Vulcan was a rescued horse and when the farm found him, he was just sticks and bones. Look at my big boy now! He's so big and strong now. (P.S I told bryan next time i wanna name my dog Vulcan because i can't have the real Vulcan. Haha)

Finally the time has come, we had to part. Strange enough, i spent about 1 hour +/- with Vulcan but i was so reluctant to leave him, to leave this farm. All of us got back an old horseshoe as souvenir! June went to ask them for it and when the lady gave her i was like, "I want i want. Can i have one too?" HAHA in the end all of us got one from them :)

We went back to our Villa to wash up before heading out to buy our cruise ticket! We paid about AUD $69 for the cruise with dinner included. Well... it wasn't worth it actually. Maybe because we went at night at about 7.30pm to 10pm so we didn't get the see any dolphins or whatever. Johnny and Jesscy said they saw dolphins for like a split second though. By the time i rushed over, i couldn't see any :(


 Australia, why are you so beautiful?

 So cute! It's like a floating church!


My Zara inspired shorts from Taobao for only $5 haha. 



 Super good garlic bread with melted cheese. Yums.






 Dessert

We ordered red and white wine to share and half the time they were closing their eyes i have no idea why but they blamed my flash for it. 




Lol. Daniel literally forced Jesscy to take photo with him. 


Hair getting super gross cos of the sea breeze. Oh well.


After coming back from Australia, i'm dying to go over there to further my studies. Like really dying to go there but i don't think it's going to happen. I got Ying to buy back an aeroplane charm for me and with that, i hope that i can travel to other countries more often. I need to see the World. Haha
