Byron Bay
We have arrived at Byron Bay. It's mental. I have become a complete introvert. I can't stand anymore than 3 people around me at one time. I think it's the camping thing that has introverted me.
Byron is backpacker heaven (or hell). We were looking to buy our Fraser Island / Whitsunday Tour. It reminded me how much i hate booking things like this, each travel agent has four 18 year olds screaming at you saying "we wont give you a quote, just come back with your best quote from somewhere else, and we will beat it". You can't find the truth out about any of the boats because each tour slags the other off. We couldn't stand it for long, so with 4003 leaflets we ran off to 'the Pass' for a surf. This was even more of a joke. I have never surfed with so many people. At one point some girl on a LILO dropped in on me! I escaped the water and we retreated in our van to the quieter lands of Lennox Head.
We slept in amoungst our leaflets, I woke up with a boat called Dream Catcher stuck on my eyelid, so we booked it. We also booked a 3 night self drive 4WD adventure on Fraser Island.
We are now off to surf over some heads on Byron main beach.
With love from hell,
Chris
P.S Can all of you have done the whitsunday/fraser thing leave comments telling us who you went with, was it fun, what went wrong, what to do etc....
P.P.S After writing this entry I got a parking ticket for $75. Gutted.

Fr Island good fun. Don't pass out on the beach at night in the pitch black and nearly get run over. Take lots of beer, and be prepared to cr*p in the bushes
