๐Ÿ–ค Hundreds of people dressed in stunning gothic and alternative fashion, a beautiful Brisbane winter's day, welcoming vibes and a relaxing picnic in the park... what's not to love?

We recently attended the The Brisbane Gothic and Alternative Picnic for the very first time, and it quickly became one of our favourite community events! From incredible Victorian-inspired outfits and cyber goths to markets, raffles, colouring in and a wonderfully inclusive atmosphere, it was a day full of creativity, friendship and self-expression.

If you've ever been curious about the event or are thinking of attending next year, we've put together a full review covering what to expect, accessibility, our favourite moments and photos! ๐Ÿ–ค

๐Ÿ‘€ Believe It... or Not! ๐Ÿคฏ

One of my birthday bucket list adventures was finally visiting Ripley's Believe It or Not! in Surfers Paradise, and it definitely didn't disappoint!

From incredible artwork made entirely from toast ๐Ÿž and a portrait of Heath Ledger, to bizarre exhibits like a two-headed baby and standing beside the world's tallest man, there was something surprising around every corner.

We also braved the Mirror Maze, nearly lost our balance in the Vortex Tunnel, and saved the best until lastโ€”the 7D Moving Theatre, where we spent the entire ride screaming, laughing and shooting robots! ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸŽฎ

If you're looking for a fun indoor activity on the Gold Coast, especially on a rainy day, this is definitely one to add to your list.

๐Ÿฆ– We survived DinoFest... just! ๐Ÿ˜‚

"If you're ever chased by a dinosaur... RUN. KEEP RUNNING." ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿ’จ๐Ÿฆ–

We had an absolute roarsome time at DinoFest Brisbane at Kalinga Park! From life-sized roaring dinosaurs and adorable baby dinos that loved belly scratches, to fossil digs, dinosaur tattoos and meeting the hilarious Dino Rangers, it was such a fun family day out.

One thing we really appreciated was that the sessions weren't overcrowded, so everyone had a fantastic view of the dinosaur encounters. The atmosphere was full of excitement, laughter and plenty of prehistoric fun!

If you're looking for a budget-friendly outing with your support person in Brisbane, this one is definitely worth checking out.

๐ŸŽ€ We Finally Visited the Hello Kitty Cafรฉ on the Gold Coast... and It Was Kawaii Overload! ๐Ÿ’–

After having it on my bucket list for ages, I finally got to celebrate my birthday with a visit to the adorable Hello Kitty Cafรฉ at Pacific Fair! ๐Ÿฅน๐ŸŽ‰

From cute bento boxes and delicious desserts to Kuromi latte art, exclusive merchandise, and the prettiest pink dรฉcor, this place is a dream come true for Hello Kitty and Sanrio fans. ๐ŸŒˆโ˜•๐Ÿฐ

Was it worth the drive from Brisbane's northside? Did the food live up to the hype? And yes... did I come home with more Kuromi merch than I probably needed? ๐Ÿคซ๐Ÿ˜‚

I expected drumming.๐Ÿฅ
I didnโ€™t expect to leave wanting to see the whole show again immediately!

DRUM TAO at Redcliffe Entertainment Centre was loud, intense, funny, dramatic and somehow felt like a theatre show and rock concert at the same time.

Definitely one of the most unexpected nights out Iโ€™ve had lately.

I wrote about the experience, what surprised me most, and why I think the Redcliffe Entertainment Centre is a hidden gem when it comes to live shows in Queensland.

I needed to switch to a site that was more sustainable for me on a pension (aka free) so here it is! https://equalaccessadventures.blogspot.com/

I'm loving the new look and I feel it suits my personality and my content more. I hope you like it. ๐Ÿ–ค
