Day 5: Byron, Tweed Heads to Lennox Head and back to Byron

Have you ever found yourself driving around without a real destination? That’s what happened to me today. I drove to Tweed Heads, then got myself to the QLD border. Spent a little time wandering around then drove all the way back to Lennox Head. I took the costal route for a change of scenery; and I swear I would move to this part of the country if only I was a beach junkie.

The drive was quite long and took me back to Byron at the end where I will be staying for  tonight before heading up north. This place is just packed with people and many of them like me, just sitting on the rocks by the main beach doing nothing.

Overall, today was a strange day for me. Didn’t really feel like taking pictures but just drive around and feeling a bit homesick. I knew before starting the trip that I would have this kind of moments; just didn’t know when. I am sure there is something to do with where I am. Not many people,if any, are by themselves. I am sure it will pass 🙂

I thought today I would feature my only company on this journey, my car!

Day 4: Byron Bay

Left Coffs Harbour this morning and next destination: Byron Bay. I took a little detour here; passing through towns like Grafton, Casino and Lismore. I have to say that living in Sydney for too long; have almost forgotten how beautiful Australia actually is after the last couple of days.

Arriving Byron just after 2pm and it has changed a lot. I don’t really recognize it anymore.

Where do you think my first stop here was? Yes, the lighthouse.

Got up there and, of course, the lighthouse was the centre of everyone’s attention. But something else had drawn my full attention. The light show that was performed from up above. I just myself hopelessly snapping away. In fact, I loved it so much… I use a pic that was taken as the featured image of this post.

Not sure if I would stay tomorrow night here… really want to get further up north asap. We’ll see. Can’t wait what’s coming next!
