Q1 and Surfer's Paradise

Well hello! Here is the end of my weekend update. On Saturday we went to Q1 and Surfer's Paradise. Surfer's Paradise is just a little area that has a bunch of really cool outdoor shops and it is where most of the nightlife is on the Gold Coast. We went shopping for a few hours (I spent WAY too much, but this weekend before the Queen's Birthday is the one weekend of the year where they have the absolute BEST deals...everything was at least 40% off!!!) And Q1 is the tallest residential building in the world, and the 20th tallest building in the world. There are 77 floors and the elevator takes you to the top in 43 seconds! Anyways, here are some pictures from the top of Q1 and around Surfer's Paradise!

Our school from the top of Q1! We found it!
The best dessert I have EVER had! I think it's called a Lamington

If you look closely you can see the reflection of the waves below on the glass
Ahh! Looks like I'm falling!
