We started with a week in a fabulous house called Belongil Sails in Byron Bay. The poor Whomsley's arrived in Sydney early on a Sunday morning and the next morning we left at 5am for the 9 hour drive to Byron. We figured it would give them a chance to get over their jet lag!

We discovered an amazing walk in the Byron Hinterland to a place called Minyon Falls. We went to the top of the falls first before walking down to them. It was hot and sticky and Andy and I got attacked by leeches but the falls were worth it. On the way back to Byron we stopped in a tiny village called Federal which has an incredible Japanese cafe called Doma - well worth the stop.
We spent a morning kayaking hoping to see turtles and dolphins. There was a big swell due to a cyclone up north and getting out past the break was very tricky! Sadly we didn't see any dolphins but we caught a glimpse of some turtles.
