    Just need to work out a place to stay, but it looks like I might be able to make it! Checking with work today.

    Oh I'll go to Townsville with you! Haha. I've been wanting to go back for ages. We have to do it when Cora is performing <3 I missed her last time I was there.

    Most definitely, I've seen pictures of that aquarium and it looks incredible! I'd love to watch Cora and Cirra perform

    I went up to visit last year and literally the day AFTER I left was their first day of performing. I was so devoed. The aquarium was beautiful though. Wish the friend I was visiting with wasn't so impatient or I could have spent the whole day there <3

    That's a shame. It requires a whole day. Mermaid Sarina and I went one day and just sat watching the fish for ages!

    Plane trip is good also.

    I want to do the drive one day since I have family about half way.

    This meet up is only two weeks away! I'm so excited to meet you all!
    I've been on the tourism website for Stradbroke Island, and it seems to have several nice beaches. Which one do you guys think will be best for us, and what times are good?

    Personally I'm super excited to visit the fresh water lakes! They look amazing! But out of respect to everyone bringing Silicone tails we'd probably have to settle on one spot and stay there I'd think since dragging those things around all over the place is tiring (we found out last week haha). Also are we all going to wait and catch the same ferry over? And do we have to buy tickets prior to the day or are we fine to purchase on the day?

  16. #36
    Yeah, I agree with the one location idea, silicone tails are not fun to carry around, I'm glad I'm just bringing my fabric tail! The same ferry is a good idea, although given the ferries seem to be a bit infrequent, we would probably all end up on the same one anyway. From what I understand, you can't pre-purchase tickets unless you're taking your car over (this is all based on their fairly poor website, please correct me if this is not the case).

    Eeee one week to go!
    Mer Crazy has suggested the fresh water lakes, what does everyone else think? Also, what time should we meet up? Are there times to avoid (I know in Perth the wind picks up after a certain time, is there anything like that in Brisbane that will affect us)?
