Surprise!

Koala in the wild!

Collecting Strawberries.

Noosa Sunset
Finally we have made it down to Byron Bay. It’s a little bit cooler, there isn’t quite as much sunshine, but there are waves and plenty of wind for the first two days for Brett to start using his kite.

The last two weeks we have spent cruising down the coast from Noosa after saying goodbye to Tucker at Australia Zoo about 2 weeks ago. We have managed to get in a few small waves and soak up some much needed sunshine. Meegan’s been a bit down and out with a Tummy bug that’s been hanging around for the last 2 weeks but its seems to be starting to clear up.

The highlights of the fortnight have been; Eumundi Markets in the hinterland behind Noosa, Glow Worms at Spring Brook National Park, another magical camp spot on Lake Cootharaba (just north of Noosa), Whales in Byron, 5 roosting roosters, and a small surprise awaiting us on the main street of Byron Bay!

Friday was spent down at Watego Beach just off the point of Byron bay getting some fun, but very small waves. The sun was out so we made lunch down the beach then headed into town to kill time until Sue and Dave arrived late in the afternoon. We though we would tuck into a raw chocolate tart at one of the many Raw Vegan Cafes lining the strip, as our cooker had karked it during lunch, so instead of a quick bite to eat it took nearly 2 hours to boil some rice!

Sitting down to enjoy some cake brett starts to look our on the street at 2 people he's spotting carting around surfboards looking very suspicious and he could swear they look nearly identical to Alicia and Ric… Low and behold they spot Brett and start running towards us screaming “Aha Ha got you”…”surprise”……!!!!!!

While all this is happening Meegan being a little on the slow side of the world, did take a few moments to register what was going on!

So the last few days has been spent with a brother and a best friend, chilling at the beach, surfing, shopping, eating, drinking and chilling out on the couch in an apartment on the beach just south of Byron Town centre.
