Spotting from Rydges Gold Coast Airport

This morning my wife and I headed off for the hour twenty-minute drive to the Gold Coast Airport where we are staying for the weekend. Rydges Gold Coast Airport Hotel is directly across the road from the airport, and offers fantastic, uninterrupted views of the airport, tarmac and runway. They have a restaurant / Cafe on the seventh floor, and that's where we spent a few hours... eating and drinking while taking photos.
