Day 4 (Quack'rDuck Gold Coast Cruise & City Tour)

I took the girls for a Quackrduck tour. This tour is for 2 hours and takes you on a land and water cruise. Best place to do your booking is on line on Gold Coast Tickets https://www.gold-coast-tickets.com.as it is a really popular tour so it gets booked out very quickly. They do offer discounts as well which you can get per person for $45-$49 depending otherwise normal fare is $50. Most other big attractions at the Gold Coast also use GC tickets.com .The girls were having a bit of fun saying we will be quacking along on the streets of GC and they got a big surprise when the Quackrduck actually did that when the driver honks the horn 😃😃, The horn actual quacks so you do get a fair bit of attention as you are driving down the streets. Don't forget to wave to the locals as you bump along on the streets. The incredible Quack'rDuck, is an amphibious vehicle that travels on both land and water. Explore Surfers Paradise in style, as you travel through its famous roads and catch sight of its renowned attractions.

Travel around Gold coast see famous cafes and restaurants where stars hang out, travel up Nerang river and see where some of the movies stars and singers live in lavish mansions along the water edge. We saw Jackie Chan's home away from home when he takes his family for holidays.

Cruise was great we went around town down into the water just after sea world and came out at South Port. Jasmine our tour guide and the driver keep us informed of all the famous sites along the drive. Your family will thoroughly enjoy the day and the driver has a really good sense of humor so he comes up with some good yarns to keep a smile on your face as you cruise along on land and water.

My Mother's Story (Mercia Paliou)

On this International Woman's Day, I wanted to share my mum's story on her journey and her aspirations in life. To also give us a glimpse into what life was like back then and what they did to build the young PNG nation. I would not be where I am today if she did not first embark on her own journey of education, career marriage and life. My mother's journey began in her village of Dogur in the Dagua LLG of the East Sepik Province. She was born on the 6th of September 1947. She already had 5 older siblings and she was the 5th born with 2 others after her. Born to parents who were subsistence farmers their lives revolve around fishing, gardening, hunting and gathering food to feed the family. A typical village day would consist of women going to the garden, to work on their vegetables patches whilst the man would go hunting/setting traps for bandicoot or fishing in the small creeks, rivers or the sea. Their stable diet is sago so each family has their own sago plots in th...

Toana Dei & Meri Blouse

On April 28 1978, the government declared that Friday should be set aside as a national dress day. Citizens were encourage to wear their cultural wear to work or school. The day was referred to as Toana day. The thinking behind that day was to encourage cultural embracement and initiate a national wear which in time will take on its style and become the national wear for contemporary PNG. Toana is from the motuan language 3rd widely spoken language in PNG and it means a symbol or a sign. A fitting word to signify the day. I am taking up this space again to feature one piece of unique clothing that has come to make its mark in PNG known as the Meri Blouse.Little did they envisage what the meri blouse would become to PNG woman.And meri blouse was introduce by Missionaries to help cover bare breast woman in the colonial days. Highly criticise as shapeless and without form created to hide the beautiful curvy body of Melanesian woman meri blouse has stood its time and held it's ...

Memoirs of an Entrepreneur (Pricing)

Pricing is something that most of us take for granted. Am not sure if you really think about price apart from when there is a price increase. Have you ever wondered how people price goods and services and what should be the correct way of pricing your items. If you price too high you will loose customers and if you price too low then you will not make a profit so there is a place where you need to come too rightly to price items. As a christian there is also God's pespective on pricing. The book of levitcus is where God instructed the Isrealites on how to price items 26: 14 And if thou sell ought unto thy neighbour, or buyest ought of thy neighbour’s hand, ye shall not oppress one another: God is very clear he does not want us to oppress another brother by putting our price too high that they struggle to buy our item and if they do they forgo other necessecities that they need in life. When you are pricing your good or service what is the first thing that comes to min...
