A day + 3 - 3 December

At the 3rd day and since rain didn't stop we decided to make the trip to Byron Bay tom see the views. Byron Bay is another small city that is a surfer and hippie mecca, with small houses and surf shopsmall over the place.







This is one of the views of the beach..it had about 10 km and there were less than 50 persons in the area we made pur picknick lunch. Our friends told us that was an australian full beach and you can see from the picture that no one is in sight!

There we saw our first blue bottle jellyfish



And we also saw the most amazing creature ever:



In the photo it doesn't seem much but this critter is a Glaucus atlanticus, the most amazing sea slug that we ever saw! We will try to get a picture of one open, as soon as possible! As ypu can see in the picture it has the most amazing colors!

At the beach we also saw the ubiquitous surfes catching some waves






And then we made a nice trek to the Byron Cape Lighthouse to see the views and on the way we got to the most easterly point in Australia.







As you can see in the last picture the sub-tropical jungle extends all the way to the beach!

After that we had a nice snack at a small cafe in downtown Byron Bay with this amazingly weird paintings



And they also made art in the latte cups :-)
