<h1>Vacationing to Australia's Gold Coast</h1>
If you drive for about an hour south of Brisbane, you will find the Gold Coast of Australia. There is an airport at Coolangatta, which means Place of Good View in aboriginal. About 25 minutes from there is surfers paradise where all the high rises give way to casinos and shopping. There are forty two kms of golden beaches and surfers and bikini clad bodies. 
 
Arguably it was the inventor of the Bikini, Paula Stafford, who has had the most influence on Gold coast development. The now infamous Meter Maids became the official Surfers Paradise Mascots for many years. For those who dont know these ladies they were Gold bikini wearing models who wandered the streets of Surfers topping up parking meters for motorists who had overstayed their parking limit , thus saving g them from a parking ticket !! 
 
This is a really good vacations spot for all ages. Children like SeaWorld, Movieworld and Dreamworld, as well as the Australian Outback Spectacular. This is a horse and cattle experience that is live, like a rodeo. 
 
Getting to these theme parks couldnt be made any easier by the Gold Coast Tourist Shuttle. This offers door to door transport from hotels .There is also a Surfside Bus that goes straight to the main theme park precinct at Helensvale/Coomera where all the above theme parks are situated except SeaWorld. If you are driving then parking is free at all theme parks and there is always plenty of space if you get there early. 
 
Transportation by and large is remarkable. The Gold Coast Airport transports from Coolangatta to all hotels in the Gold Coast. You can also buy an unlimited transportation pass for AUD44, that works for 3 consecutive days. There is also a Freedom Pass that includes airport transfers as well for AUD58 for three days.
