Day2 in leisure

Day 2, 18/10/2008. We woke up early to catch the free shuttle to weekend Carrara market, which opened from about 730am to 2pm.
This morning, our breakfast was "last night's left over". Haha, the unfinished Thai dishes. Warm it back in microwave, the dishes were served with coffee and potato salad from Pacific fair,woolworth market.
Here we go Carrara, the well known weekend market where u could get a lot of bargain.
Big fresh market selling fruits and vegetables with cheap prices. They sang and dance to attract customers. I bought 2 big boxes of strawberry at $5, 2 boxes of blueberry at $8. The prices are simply unbeatable...(but day after i found blueberry on sale at Woolworth supermarket there at $3.80/box.haha. It was $7+/boxes without promotion)

The lunch was great! The greek marinated lamb cutlet served with Greek salad, potato salad, Pita bread, olive and Feta cheese. This big portion was shared between us. $15, the greatest thing in Gold Coast i think is the tasty Western food.

We spent our morning at Carrara till 2pm, bought some souvenirs eg koala keychain etc. Quite expensive here as compared to Surfer paradise. Here, 12 pieces of koala sold for $3.5o but in Surfers Paradise's shops u can get this 12 pieces of koala at only $2. Even the bigger koala at $2 too.As a conclusion, don't buy souvenirs in Carrara Market. Go Surfer Paradise!!! U can find cheap souvenirs and nougats there at "Duty Free Shops", near the Hard Rock area, stroll around la~~
After that that we went for a stroll somewhere near Oasis. We dropped by an Ice Cream shops, Gelato Veneziano. We ere attracted by the signboard. Let's give it a try, without thinking of how much it cost in Malaysia ringgit. Hehe..
Not bad though, smooth and silk. hahah..too sweet i think. :) it's a combination of rum raisin + cappucino and...??
Realized that we had spent a lot in day time, we decided to buy some light breakfast for tomorrow, perhaps some breads...Okay, i bought these chocolate muffin at $2.90. reasonable and delicious.
At night when all the shops closed, basically not much places to visit. We enjoy our Sunday leisure in our apartment. I posed with my newly purchase doll, weird looking. Wakakaka~~~~
Let's go to Sea World tomorrow~~
