Hi Everyone!
After my last entry, me and Gar headed out to Nimbin on a Road Trip - Gar was Goose the Navigator and I was Maverick the driver! For those who don't know, Nimbin is like this tiny place where drugs are pretty much legal (or at least the police turn a blind eye!) and is full of hippies and pot heads! When we got there it took us all of 5 minutes to walk up and down the high street and see the state of the locals! I think it took all of 12 seconds to be offered some weed and a smoke by some old dude who couldn't tell you what day it was or even care probably! It was a good scenic drive though on a gorgeous day...we can say we've seen Nimbin now!!
On sunday Sam felt all energetic and dragged us out of the house for a beautiful 5km hike through a forest to Minyon Falls...It was so lush (but hot n sticky)...Saw a diamond back snake on the rocks (gar got all Koala Murph on us and posed by it!) before we all swam at the bottom of the Falls...Refreshing! We then went to the beach for a surf n swim before going to The Rails pub for a meal! Top day!
Monday Morning i got up early and pretty much signed my life away....I skydived 14,000 feet!!!! WOW! Words cannot describe the experience...definitely the best thing ive ever done (maybe with the exception of playing at Lords!?) Certainly the best adrenaline rush i could ever have - 70 seconds freefall! My instructor who was strapped to me, Nathan, was a top bloke (nutter), and i had it all filmed and got the pics on DVD etc for all you to see when im home! I get so excited just saying that ive done it - Mental! That afternoon we met up with a couple of lads Gar knew from work back home on the beach, planned our next part of our trip up the Gold Coast, before hitting the town again for our last night in Byron Bay with Sam (Legend)! We met up with a few girls we'd met earlier in the week, got pretty drunk as you do and ended up with sand in my shorts Tuesday morning! ;)
Next stop on Lloydy and Murfs Long Way Round...Surfers Paradise!
