I got up early as I had to check-out of the hostel and return the rental car. Me and Julia bought food from the supermarket for our lunch. We then returned to the hostel and had porridge. We played volleyball with some Canadians, it was good fun! We then went to Wanderers Travel and used the internet. We walked back to the hostel and had lunch. I said my goodbyes to Ebba and Julia. Then me and Greg walked to the bus station and he got on his rental bike as h...

I got up early and met Sarah (Swiss), Greg and the Swedish sisters. Greg had already booked us a rental car. We were given a heap of s#it! The worst car I've ever seen on the road! It was a white apollo and in a terrible condition. The steering wheel was not even aligned properly! I was the only person who could drive, so I had to drive us to Nimbin. We stopped at Clunes for breakfast at a little shop. We then drove towards Nimbin passing through rolling cou...

I phoned and used up all my phone credit, so then I went to the police station and reported my ...

They'd had a heavy night so I left them in the dorm sleeping. I used the free internet at Wicked Travel and then walked up to Cape Byron. I found a walking trail that took me to the beach. I walked up on to a craggy rock called "The Pass" and watched surfers-it looks like so mu...

Today I left Lennox Head early in the morning and booked into a hostel in Byron Bay right on the beach. It has BBQ, free boogie boards, sangria nights, and is reasonably nice inside. I'm going to check out the town today and maybe take a trip to Nimbin in a few days. It's the Amsterdam of Australia with lots of stoners and hash dealers. I think it will be fun to see as there are loads of hippy shops and alternative therapies. The weather here is good, ...
