Today we learnt a valuable lesson - always book accomodation over the weekend. We had done our normal booking over 2 nights incase we didn't like the place and had decided that we were going to move to Nomads where Amber and Tom were staying. But Nomads had no room, our current hostel had no room and neither did most of the hostels around. Finally we managed to book one night at Backpackers Inn until we can get into Nomads tomorrow.

Its no wonder all the surfers flock to Byron, the waves are awesome! Today we managed to catch some waves using bodyboards. We spent hours in the water being knocked about like punch bags.

Trying not to eat pasta every night like most people do in hostels we decided to go for a salad tonight. After spending $30 in Coles we threw together a halloumi salad with orange, avocado, melon and grapes.... not sure who we think we are!!
