Sunday 1 September 2019 - Gold Coast

Up this morning for a 2 hour drive down to the Gold Coast.  The traffic on the freeway and through Brisbane wasn't too bad.  We kept flowing all the way through fairly constantly.   First stop was Pacific Fair.   It is just too big and when you don't know what shops are there you just aimlessly wander around, which we did for a couple of hours.  Drove to Ian's aunt and uncle's house for lunch.  We had a lovely bbq in the their backyard with their daughters and grandchildren.  The time passed far too quickly and we had to return to the car for the trip back to the van.  It was lovely to catch up with everyone.   

The trip back to the van was not quite as easy as the trip down.  We were in bumper to bumper traffic crawling along at 40kph and even came to a complete standstill at one point.  There did not appear to have been an accident and we could not fathom what the reason was except too much traffic trying to return home after a day out!
