Stanthorpe

3 days 2 nights Stanthorpe trip is over in a blink of eyes. We had so much fun in and out of the mansion. I don't know why i missed a shot at the mansion while i took a whole lot of photos.... the mansion, an interesting story. it is in the middle of nowhere, very isolated with no civilisation around. However, the furnishing was so awesome, we have got swimming pool, spa, sauna, steam room, tennis court, snooker table, wii, theatre room etc etc.

I have that eerie feeling when I first saw the mansion. I have watched a lot of movies showing a whole group of youngsters going to a castle sorta stuffs with great interiors but ended up in a haunted house. hahaha.... that is the feeling i had. LOL. anyway, it ended up fine and I'm back at gold coast. It was a nice trip. haha, I might wanna go again. There are some stories here and there from my friends though. Thank god I didn't encounter any. LOL.

It was a 4-hour drive from Gold Coast to Stanthorpe. The scenery was quite nice along the road. We saw the white and black cow which always featured in the Fernleaf commercial. Some of them saw kangaroo and kaola bear but i didnt managed to spot that. and hehe, we stopped at this Moogerah Dam for a short rest after 2 hours of driving. It was nice and worthed our stop there! But it rained half way when we haven't finished visiting. We were all wet. A good start though to our trip. haha






Pool volley ball, spa, tennis, POKER and all sort of games go on in the mansion. Laughter and screaming here and there.

And this one down here is the liqueurs factory. They sell real good liqueurs. They offer free tasting and of course we took advanctage of that to taste as much as we can. hehe *evil laughter* I have bought a bottle home which cost me $25.. pretty cheap i think.





Look at the variety of the liqueurs. Insanely many.


Read this sign board:





Matt brought us to this intelligent park where we have to find clues in the maze which is built with bushes. They provide us with a lot of intelligent toys too. i have completed only one of them haha. Had fun in it.
We were supposed to head to the greatest lookout point in QLD which is the Governor's Lookout point on our way back home. We actually tracked up the half slippery muddy road until we decided it was not a good day to track up there. It started raining by then. It gets dangerous. Glad that we got down and turn back. haha. But i will definately want another go at that.
We have got some fresh Strawberries, peaches, plum and nectarines direct from the farm too.... wahaha
Longing for another long trip. haha

I’m glad you posted something like this one. Consequently those people became aware in identifying the different home building services. We know that somehow it will help people.
