In the past few days, we've made it back to Surfer's Paradise, via an overnighter in Hervey Bay. SO much coach travel it's been hell. But it was worth it :)
Here in Surfers there's a huge party going on for about a month (though...

Past few days have been a bit boring, really. Except for a HUUUUGE fire that destroyed the big shopping centre here. The main street was closed off for a couple days while they cleared up the rubble.
It's been raining a lot,...

Ok. So here we are back in Byron Bay. Got the 10:30 bus out of Surfer's Paradox this morning (with literally a few seconds to spare) and already we're bored. Not good! Hopefully tomorrow'll be better, cos it was too late to take...

Went surfing this afternoon. There was a pretty strong tide. No... there was a DAMN strong tide! It pushed me out and left without me realising, and when I caught a ride back to the beach, and I looked up to dismount, I was...

Went surfing again today. On the far side of the beach this time :) Had a good day too! Caught a bunch of waves in, and was even walking up and down the board a few steps to try and make the most of a few waves. Rode the break in...

Got up early today (well... 8:30 is the crack of dawn for me nowadays!) and went to the bus stop to see Joven off. It's only fair really, as when I turned up in Sydney he came to the airport to meet me at 6am! I'll probably see...

This morning I woke at 10am, but because of the two Americans' shinanigans in the early morning, I decided to sleep in. I would probably have managed it too, if everyone and his dog hadn't decided to trapse in and out of the dorm...

Didn't go out in the end lastnight... Met the bunch of Canadians that've moved into the dorm and played cards all night. Was pretty chilled. When I got up at noon today (a fairly reasonable time for me!) I grabbed some lunch and...

The past few days have been a little on the quiet side... Mainly consisting of: Waking up at midday. Going to the beach. Getting a good tan. Going home. Getting drunk. Going to bed.
There was, however, a BBQ lastnight, after...

Lastnight was a mixed bag of events. To start with, I went over to Spanky Monkeys to get some food. I ended up staying til 2:30AM and when I left I was absolutely sozzled. When I got back, I hasty a nasty surprise in store. The...

The past few days have been pretty cool... Had a barbecue the other night and got absolutely wasted. Then accused the two swedish guys who are in the double room in our unit that they were gay. Well... when I say accused, that's...

The past few days have been rather strange. To start with, Christmas Day was probably the most bizarre day ever. Accoding to the weatherman, it was 45 degrees here in Byron on xmas day. 45 degrees! It should be -4.5! There was a...

Bargain! Lastnight, I was the only bloke in the unit. The 3 open-minded ample breasted Swedish blondes didn't make an appearance, but along with Diana and Daniella - the 2 Swedish chicks in the double room - there were 3 American...

The past few days have been pretty relaxed. 3 English chicks moved into the double room, and they seem like a nice bunch of girls. There's been a few comings and goings in the dorm, and a Swedish guy called Per (Like ze fruit!)...
