Noosa Heads and the Trip up the coast

So we left on Sunday the 29th, and arrived in Noosa Heads (Noosa for short) on Monday the 30th. The drive was long but very scenic. It's not every day that you get to drive down the pacific highway. On Sunday night we camped at a random camp-park, near a little town called Kempsey (where one of my roommates is from!) We arrived in Brisbane to pick up the keys to the appt. and then we were on the home stretch. It was a great feeling leaving the car for some solid ground. the appt was massive. It could sleep 15 people easy, all in beds! It was great. It ever had a pool! Noosa was amazing. BEAUTIFUL! The beach was clean and not too busy at all. all along the beach is a nice strip of shops and cafes. there is a lovely national park also. Overall it was gorgeous Also the beach was a short walk from our appt and that was nice. It rained the second night and the third day but Jeremy and I made the most of it. Rob Left us on the third day for Cairns. And Jeremy's cousin Hailey came up from Brisbane for a little visit. Hailey left at around three and because it was raining we went to the movie theatre, conveniently located accross the street from out appartment (also there was another strip of stores accross from the appt which was nice. On our last day in Noosa Jeremy and I went out for breakfast and i had an unreal yoghurt and muesli and fruit dish and then we hit the beach. It was gorgeous. We grabbed some sushi and decided to go hom eand sit out of the sun for a while. Jeremy took me out for dinner down by the beach again and then he took me to see 'where the wild things are' the movie.. sidenote: DON'T SEE THAT MOVIE IT WAS TERRIBLE. But yes. Sadly we left Noosa today, and made out way to Brisbane. On the way to Brisbane we stopped and spent the day at a little town in the mountains called "montville" It was great. It reminded me a lot of Niagara on the Lake. Very old fashioned like storefronts and bakeries... also there was even a store that was a christmas store year round! just like "Just christmas" in NOTL. I am not sitting in a MASSIVE house in Brisbane owned by friends of Jeremy's family. It is so beautiful. we have our own room and bathroom with masive shower, bathtub with legs and massive mirror.. (the mirror is not so forgiving with me these days... that will change when I get back to the gym at home) I will write more as the adventure in Brisban unfolds. I have WiFi now so thats nice. Tomorrow Jeremy and I are hitting up Brisbane city and going for a little shopping! G'day Mates!
Love,
Em
