byron bay

for the past 2 days i've been here in byron bay. it's a bit of a hippie-town, quite alternative and really laid back, love it! my hostel is even more alternative than alternative, called the arts factory. all in all it's a really nice place, and it's been really nice & sunny too the past days (but still only 20 degrees), the nigts are FREEZING though!

went on a whale watching tour this morning, really cool and apart from whales we saw some dolphins as well. wasn't able to get anything on camera though as everytime you see a whale (and it was from like 100m distance, your're not allowed to come closer unless they come to you) they disappear...fast! plus the boat was pretty bouncy :P
went for a walk up to cape byron's lighthouse (australia's most eastern point) this afternoon, and from there i saw some dolphins & whales again, this time i was able to get at least something on camera...

tonight i'm taking the nightbus back to sydney, (almost 13 hours!), staying with emma in wollongong for the next few days! :D
