Day one was Sea World and we experienced rain overnight. It was unclear what sort of weather we were going to get but despite being overcast the weather was fine and the temperature pleasant. The highlight was the rides (Viking's Revenge and Storm Coaster were the favourites), the Jet Ski show held interest but the dolphin show didn't really tick too many boxes for the tweenies. Based on 3-2-1 preferences from the family, Sea World got 4 votes. It needs a bit of work to get up to scratch, however, families with young children and toddlers would find it more worthwhile than we did.
Navigating our way back towards Brisbane along the Pacific Motorway to Movie World on the next day, the sun was making an effort to brighten up the day. We started off at the sedate kids area with several goes on the Roadrunner ride. Just enough of a scare to make it fun. By the end of the day, 3 of us had been on the Superman ride and we had all seen a menagerie of WB characters. After all that, Movie World earned 11 votes in the family vote.
Day 3 we found ourselves once more making our way through traffic on the Pacific Motorway, taking Exit 62 and parking outside the entrance to Wet n Wild. The website had been consulted and the decision had been made - we're going on the Tornado Dad! A quick look at the map, a brief stop at the toilet then off to the hair-raising Tornado. Beginning the day on a high and having a ball all the way through was the story. It was relaxed and thrilling with great variety in the rides - Miss Tween even got me on the Kamikaze. In the end, we gave it 9 votes. Something for everyone, and A fun day out.
