Visit to the Rainbow Lorikeets and Check in to the Sebel Hotel Coolangatta
We checked out of the Langham Hotel at 12.15pm and drove toward Coolangatta through the major roadworks and eventually decided to have lunch in the perk near Coolangatta Surf Beach on a near perfect day with little wind and temperatures of 25-27 degrees.
Jeanette had prepared Sandwiches and we had a soft drink and Ken took some further photos.
We jumped in the car and sought to check in early at the Sebel Coolangatta. Fortunately, the room was cleaned and we were able to check in at 2.45pm and then we unpacked what was necessary.
Following this we made the short drive to be at the Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary to be participants in the feeding of the hundreds of Lorikeets who fly in for the feeding at 4.00pm. It is spectacular to see these beautiful birds and to feed them from the silver metal plates the liquid syrup which they love.
On this occasion Ken takes photos and Jeanette hold the tray. They arrive on schedule and we have a great 35 minutes. They then fly off to the large Pines in Coolangatta and others in closer proximity where they sleep the night.
It is simply an amazing experience. We have done it several times.
