Going further and further away for a day
Recently during the holiday season I finally went for a drive and rediscovered the Gold Coast again. It had been years since I'd bothered to go since I favour the North Coast scene more if I do go.
After driving past the new stadium at Broadbeach ready for the Commonwealth Games next year, I stopped at Burleigh Heads. I had a sandwich I'd brought with me for lunch to save on costs and calories. I then went on to the upgraded Pacific Fair shopping centre to browse. I stopped for a cuppa on the balcony by the waterway with Jupiters Casino in sight. The trams were nearby.
I ended my time at Surfers Paradise (in the distance in the photo above). I was impressed by the long wide boardwalk they'd built a long the beach front being used by holiday makers and the odd skate boarder. Great posters of the old days too. After trying some arm resistance equipment out, I walked a long to Surfers where I bought a drink before getting back to my car for the drive home.
Anyway I wanted to get across that sometimes it helps to -
- go a bit further on your walk
- enjoy a change of scenery at a different location
- shake up your routine
- take time out to get away for a while
- be inspired
- be surprised
- be refreshed by change
- be open to new possibilities
