Well left sydney now a good few weeks ago and worked my way up the coast to Brisbane, stopping off at Coffs Harbour, Surf Camp (where i learnt to surf - and managed to stand up!! yay!!) Then headed up to Byron Bay - this place is one of my favourite places by far...so chilled out and everyone here was awesome...i ended up chilling here for about 4 days! i went on a day trip to Nimbin...well what can i say about Nimbin...funny little place - one road in and out, one police station and the most amount of drugs possible we had some really young lad to a really old man offering us weed and cookies! Also there was a random little museum with loads of hippie things...(a little camper in one room then shed loads of whicks in another - like i said RANSDOM - but a right giggle too...on the way back to Byron we got taken to this mans ohouse - he lives in the middle of nowehere and has grown his own forest - he's been there for about 100 yrs lol but has the most amazing garden...well you cant call it a garden more like forest...he was a crazy little man, and had a random fridge in amounst the bushes...
I left Byron Bay and went to Surfers Paradise, ended up staying here for a week...went up the highest residential tower in the world (Q1 Building) amazing views we watched the sun set over the mountains in the background, went to a theme park and walked along the beaches...but it rained pretty much the whole time i was here, wasnt that much of a fan when i thought of surfers paradise i thought itd be similar to Byron Bay - nope it was full of massive skyrisers. Nevermind was still good.
Next Stop Brisbane!!!!
I have spent the last 6 weeks in Brisbane, working for Chill Backpackers. I have had such a great time here...I went on an eco rainforest tour, saw some of the oldest trees, fed parrots saw more glow worms and waterfalls, we went to a fudge shop on the way back - it was fantastic, but the cookies and cream one was a bit sickly...still ate it thought. We had staff nights out and they were all fancy dress 1st one was robots - i went as bumble bee from transformers, 2nd was xmas party - i was mary (lol) and the 3rd one i went to was ghostbusters ( the best yet!) I got to go to Moreton Island - went sandboarding (tip for you all dont go down a sand dune with your mouth open - especially if you dont have any water to hand) lol! but was great!!! then i went snorkling around the Tangalooma wrecks - 1st time i have ever snorkled and the guide was throwing bread over the top of me (i didnt realise and wondered why all the fish were at my head!) Saw one of the cormorants catch one of the fish! it was too big for him thought and it took him ages to swallow! lol
Also have been to Australia Zoo - OMG it was so cool - they walk the animals around the zoo so you can pet them...i sat in a crocs mouth too! lol
Brisbane was good - made some wicked mates there and am definately going to go back, the city is really nice!
