Day 9 : Sunshine Coast

I'm This morning we packed up our stuff and boarded the ferry back from Moreton Island to Brisbane. We move around quite a bit, never in a hotel for more than a night or two. Once back on the makand we drove up to the Sunshine Coast to try boogie boarding and surfing. The surf instructors cooked us hamburgers for lunch before changing into wetsuits and heading to the ocean.

Our group split in two and while half went  boogie boarding the others tried to surf. Boogie boarding was tons of fun but surfing was not for me. We practiced on land quite a bit, but once out in the water it was a different story. I tried to get up, but had no luck. 

After our day at the beach, we traveled to our hotel for the night. We walked over to Wallworth's for some fun food shopping - I have determined that Australians love Kit Kats. Lots of options like mint or cookies and cream, but I got the "chunky" kind which is really KitKat with a  top layer of caramel. We also bought treats for our trip to tomorrow, ten hours on the road as we get closer to the Tropic of Capricorn.
