Everyone slept in until nearly 9am! Breakfast took forever and we spent the morning doing lots of washing. It's finally time to put away the bathers for a while as we leave the coast tomorrow. We drove into Byron Bay and parked at Watego's Beach. It was still windy so we walked along the path to Little Watego's Beach rather then climbing over the rocks.

We all had breakfast together and eventually headed down to the beach for a long walk along the sand towards Byron Bay. We spotted another pod of dolphins surfing the waves and a couple of whales swimming along further out to sea. Grace had bought the kids some lollies, which they were allowed to eat as they w...
