WB Movie World is a tourist attraction south of Brisbane that calls itself 'Hollywood on the Gold Coast'. It does remind me of certain parts of Greater LA, but not so much Hollywood. Nevertheless it's a great theme, and the park has some pretty good shows, some nice rides and a good feeling. There is, apparently another one in Munchen, but I've not seen it with my own eyes so...

When we got to Brisbane they had been in a drought for four years (or six years, depending on who you spoke with) and they had not had three consecutive days of rain for eight years. Naturally, we broke the drought. Naturally, it rained quite heavily while we were in Movie World.

Silly me, I thought standing next to a camel would make me look skinny. Well... you must remember this.
