A CRUISE, AND A FERRIS WHEEL

 


First, how about our opinion of last night's dinner and show at Dracula's?

It was goddam HORRIBLE.

We were supposed to be 'scared' on entering, and went on a two minute 'ghost train' ride, with the usual fake dead mummies, scary ghouls etc on the walls making noises... it was just so pathetic!

ABOVE:  It wouldn't have scared a 5 year old.

Cheap, tacky, bad taste, the 'show' was not cohesive, there was very little to redeem it in fact.  One girl was a good singer, the band was good, and one girl did an amazing aerial routine.  The rest was fucking awful.

I would NOT recommend it to anyone.

Stew and Rowena 100% agreed with me on every point.

We walked out well before it ended.  I would have left earlier, but we had paid for a meal, so intended to get what we paid for.

The meal was PASSABLE.  But only just.

And that about wraps it up.

Moving on to today, Rowena is picking us up, and we are catching a train into the city.

We have booked a three hour lunch cruise on the Brisbane River.

I am really looking forward to that.  Surely it will be wonderful?

After the lunch cruise, we might go to the botanic gardens on scooters, or just move on to the Ferris Wheel.

And that is our plans for the day.

Catch ya later.

  1. OMG, of course Draculas is cheap and tacky. That is why people go! It pays to go with a few drinks inside you first! Hopefully today will be better for you.

    1. Having never been to one before, I did not know that. I thought it would at least be professional! It wasn't. There was an incident right before we entered the venue that upset us, and I think that tarred the entire evening. I am not going into details of said incident, it's over with.

  2. Sorry that the show was an absolute let down(flop). Hoping the rest of your ventures around are much more enjoyable, At least you are having fun at the Mall's & Surfers Market.

    1. Yes, yes, yes!! How can you even be outside without your sunglasses? We literally live in ours winter and summer due to the harsh sun. My eye doctor told me to never be without them.
