Hi,


I will be travelling to GC in June and am thinking of renting a car as I have a party of 5. Just like to check do I need to convert the Singapore licence to international license to rent the car?

Thanks.

Better to bring international license. Anyway it is easy to get.

I went to Sydney last November. I did not convert my Singapore driving licence to international, but they accepted after seeing the licence.

I did online on the website. 6 applications approved instantly. 1 application needed some review and was approved in next 2-3 days.


I received e-mail confirmations of the approvals. Not necessarily to print out as it is stored in their systems but I am fussy, so I printed out to bring along.

warning : catch a crab cruise , operator : http://www.catchacrab.com.au/


just came back from our Goldcoast holidays. with the June holidays coming up, thought i should post cautioning those who is planning for this catch a crab cruise. The boat ride, the scenery was fantastic and the kids do like it lots. But, yes, there is a BIG BUT is to our shock, the cruise was packed with 2 coaches of China tourists and 101% of the men (there were at least >20 of them) were smoking non stop throughout the entire 2-3 HOURS boat ride. Nothing against the Chinese nationals but the smoke was entirely unbearable and uncontrollably choking for hours. It's quite impossible to \"enjoy\" , amidst the rowdiness and din they were making.

From the \"crowd control\" and how things are being arranged, it's obvious the operator is \"seasoned\" to this kind of scene already (the smoke, the noise, the chaos). Hence we do feel pretty upset that they would pack us together with the batches of tourists. they should definitely split out the groups. I would definitely caution anyone planning this as it's a few hours of smoke to endure
