Equal Access Adventures

The Hologram Zoo is a walk through experience full of epic animal holograms that feel like the animals are right there with you! You go through tunnels following the marker and watch huge creatures in their natural habitat, come alive right before your eyes. The experience feels surreal and is truly a wonder to behold. We also added the Dinosaur Experience, because why not while we were there. It was amazing to see huge animals walk overhead, beside you or fly past! There was excellent audio which really made you feel a part of the ancient world of dinosaurs. At the end of your travel through the tunnels, you can also take a photo with the dinosaurs! They can then be easily downloaded directly to your phone digitally. I removed us from this photo, but we were screaming at the T-Rex. I reckon it looked more like I was yelling back at it though - haha! This place is such a fun venue to take you back in time and let your imagination run wild. You can't help but reach out, trying ...

The Strawberry View Coffee Shack is a gorgeous brunch spot with stunning views. Located in Bellmere, it's built right on a strawberry farm, and has a beautiful backdrop of the Glasshouse Mountains. The menu has a lot of mouth watering choices, involving, of course, fresh, juicy strawberries! I opted for the mini pancakes. My support worker chose a gorgeous strawberry kebab and the smashed avocado - yum! We thought the prices were a little more on the expensive side, but when we saw the servings we were pleasantly surprised how plentiful they were. The facilities were also fantastic, with accessible toilets, accessible parking, and flat ground, making it very wheelchair-friendly. I was very impressed, especially since it feels like you're in the middle of nowhere (though you really aren't). There was lots of spacious seating and there is even a little playground for the kids. The atmosphere was quiet and serene, making it very relaxing to sit and sip a coffee in peac...

🌈 HAPPY PRIDE MONTH! I was so excited to go to my very first pride festival. I'm in my 40s, but hey, better late than never, right?! This awesome festival is on annually at Pine Rivers Park in Strathpine. The festival is filled with nothing but good vibes and colourful fun! There were fantastic markets to explore and many community services offering cool, free activities. We made some pins, a bracelet, got stickers and I even brought home beads to make another bracelet. I also won a Lychee Mojito diffuser on a wheel spin at one of the stalls! I loved the activity where you take a message from a ball, like the one on the blue note. You then get to write something and put it in a ball for someone else to read. How beautiful and wholesome. There were even FREE iron-on transfers of the PrideFest logo or other cute designs that you could add to merchandise you brought with you! I got two done on my Splatter room shirt that was covered in coloured paint. How cool! I freaking love it!...

A trip to the Golden Circle Factory Outlet is a great outing for bargain hunters! Located in Morayfield and Capalaba, this fantastic store offers clearance stock from Heinz and Golden Circle, allowing you to find items at prices much lower than in supermarkets. They also have a pensioner discount on the first Tuesday of the month! You'll find everything from snacks, chocolate, and confectionery to canned goods, drinks, cleaning supplies, and even affordable toothbrushes! It's the perfect place to stock up on bathroom essentials like soap and toothpaste at unbeatable prices. Personally, I love Popcorners - yum! The enticing deals, like '2 for $5.00' or '3 for $5.00,' are hard to resist - prices that even Coles or Woolies can't match! However, I found that cleaning items were not significantly cheaper compared to other stores. This outlet is an excellent place to stock up before a weather crisis. Fingers crossed there won't be one anytime soon, but if...

Had a bad day? Had a bad week? GO SMASH ALL THE THINGS!! Rage Cage Smash Rooms are so much fun to de-stress, release pent up anxiety, shout, smash and laugh. You can even take your own items if you want to smash them up too! (within reason - please see website for details). We did the twenty items for twenty minutes option. They do accept companion cards and offer free entry for your support person, they just can't smash. My support worker decided to pay and smash with me to join the fun! You can even pay extra to smash up something huge like a TV, microwave or even a guitar. You sign your waiver first, then up you go to get instructions on safety and kitted up ready to smash. Most important is keep that mask on, as there will be flying glass etc. They even had fun onesies there you could wear too which was really cool - haha! A really nice touch is you can write a message on the wall. Maybe your boss was awful that week, you had a break up or some other pain/anger you're ...
