Weeeooooo!! FurDu was AMZAING!! As always!! ^o^ Loved every minute of it!!
Thursday:
Anzac Day! We had Shy-Cry and Kaz cougar stay with us and I stayed home to keep them company while Crazy did the March of awesome =) We then made sure everything was all packed and awesome and finally headed off at about 2.30pm!
Headed to Sydney to pick up BC and Spence to take with us on the long journey up north! Our 4WD was insanely full and packed so much you wouldnt even fit another small bag!
We headed up to a place near Port Macquarie called "Swans Crossing" to camp the night! Arriving at about 11pm, we drove around a bit and couldnt find the actual camp ground, so we stopped at a picnic area and claimed it as our own! >:3
Friday:
Got up fairly early, was awoken from the sound of a truck going by (tis a big logging area) and I thinkwe headed off around 7am ish? Stopped in Port Macquarie for brekky and then headed off! Next stop was Coff Harbour and we stopped at the BIG BANANA X"D There was had a break and the guys had to get the leaf spring back into Shy's trailer (it'd popped out after an epic bounce at the crossing!) lol
On the road again and we made it to a small place near ballina (can't remember what it was called) that has terrible service station service...so we opted to find the local public toilets instead X"D
Driving forever longer we eventually made it to the gold coast!! Was about 3.30pm X__x And I had missed a panel (i was supposed to be doing.. but did not know about!) But it was alll good X"3 checked in filled up one of those bag trolleys to the top and took it to our room and unloaded! Crazy parked the car down stairs for us =)
Once unpacked we headed off to collect badges and check out what was happening at FurDu!
Crazy went to have a rest while I Just hung around with a few peeps and talked for ages until it was almost food time! Went and grabbed crazy and went off with a whole bunch of awesome people for dinner at a nice Italian restaurant (I think?) it was good! ^__^ Then after all that we headed back to watch the Furdu inro and Fox Amoore, Kaz, and Darky's charity show!! They were all SOO amazing!! I am baffled at how these guys just mesh into one I loved everything they all did!! Weeooo!! ^o^
After that was the dance, but we decided to go chill and hang out for the rest of the night X'D
Saturday:
We went off to Charlies for an epic brekky!! SOOO good!! <3 Wondered around for a bit before heading to the dealers den a little late! Set up and such sold some wares.. Not a single soul was interested in my pony raffle for a bunch of free pony stuff X"D lol how times change!! (yess!) Sold almost all my collars too! Will have to get mOAR! X"D haha Nearing the late arvo I packed up and went to see the peeps at "pool con" X"D I was all dressed up so no pool for me =( just retrieved the ball a few times!
After that was the Matt Hollywood magic show!! Alot shorter than last time, but incredible! I'm just gobsmacked at how he does this stuff!! wow! Was awesome when he got purtz up too! I'm not sure if he was purposly put there for it, but the whole time i was wondering if he'd go up to purtz and remember him from last year XD LOL that just made the WHOLE night!! Also kinda hoped he'd remember Kraden too XD
After that was the furdu game show!! Awesomely funny as always!! WeeooO!! <3
Then off for food and chill con.
Sunday:
Went off for brekky before fursuit walk!! It was SO HOT >.< I don't know how those full suiters did it! X"D lol, but it was fun, tried to get out of there asap.. I thought I was going to get a blood nose >.O (I get from over heating) But I didnt! I quickly got dressed and headed down to the dealers den to sell things! This time crazy got me to put out all my stickers to see if more would be noticed.. and yup! lots more interest today! Only had ONE entrant to my raffle, soooo KIBA won X"D hahah! X'3 Watched a bit of the games tourney through the door where I was sitting... wish i knew it involved Super Mario 64!! OMG LOVE IT <3 Then packed up while the iron artist was on so i could go watch!! Always soooo funny and entertaining! X"D weeoo! Dustan and stucat made an epic madona tinfoil bubblewrap 'fursuit' X"D ALL THE AWESOME!! ahaha!!
Then I had to run off and get suited up for the fursuit games!! I JUST made it in time! lol it was all good fun!
Then it was time for the closing ceremony and charity auction! Kaz, Darky and Fox Amoore where all 'busking' for charity out int he lobby while we waited for it all the begin ^_^ This was when I finally sorta got to meet Fox Amoore for the first time the whole con! ^o^ The charity auction was awesome with Kell the great presenter! Makes it so much fun! X"D it was amazing how much things sold for too!! wow!! Just as we thought about leaving, there was a last minute auction on for a t-shirt (straight from Fox Amoore's back!) signed by himself, Kaz and Darky! I couldnt help myself.... I had to go for it!! X"D Had a few peeps hand me some extra $$ to make it up!! (thanks to all of you!!!) and I got it for $200! X"D *squee!* (its right now living on my mannequin!)
Quickly after that headed off with Kaz and others to go to timezone!! slightly detoured for a bit to the beach, where we quickly bailed to get as much timezone fun as we could!! It was AWESOME fun!! We stayed until pretty much close time, getting in all the included deals, trying to win points for prizes, lazer tag and dodgems. Then joined buy stucat and foxamoore near the end playing the 'unlimited' games until we left X'3
After we got back.. dance time!! stayed until the end and then hung about with peeps until 4am X___x
Monday:
Had to get up early to be checked out by 10am ....gyaaahhh. but we made it. car was allowed to stay while we ventured around surfers paradise most of the day! Looking at shops, getting food, chilling by the beach.. and I even got me a tattoo! yup! a REAL one (not the airbursh ones i saw lots of people getting! lol) I managed to get in *just!* tis a small eagle on my foot, was going to go behind my ear, but was a bit too big for that. So I went for foot XD to take my mind of the the epic pain I was looking at all the art on the walls.. but alot involved some weird Pink Floyd-esq intercourse that was not very appealing X"D So I just watched the needle do it's work. The guy who did it was really good, super neat, nice and quite fast too! I think it took about 10-15mins! It did cost about double i was expecting.. but... was an awesome souvenir! worth it!
Then when it came time, it was journey to Brisbane!! We stayed at Drake's so we dumped stuff and then soon after it was food noms time! Had dinner at Grill'd with a whole lots of peeps.. I think 40 in total? X"D and then we all went to watch Iron man 3!! ^o^ IT WAS AWESOME!!
