Wednesday 21st and Thursday 22nd December 2011
The hostel at Bryon is yet again another beauty! It is called Aquarius. Sarah has also joined me in this hostel which is nice as always good to know someone when entering these crazy places!!
Our dorm is so strange. It is all wooden with an upstairs to it… The plus point is there are no bunk beds which, to be honest is quite refreshing as gets annoying, especially if sharing with someone you don’t know. This place is a Motel rather than a hostel and has a number of girls who are living there so their stuff is just everywhere, such a random place!
Anyway, after a late night disco dancing I wake up to pouring rain so just have a chilled morning, lie in which is nice as I am still lacking in sleep and yet to actually sleep for more than five hours…
Once it stops raining, we then head out to meet Sarah’s friend who tells us there is a nice coastal walk to the lighthouse.
Took us a good couple of hours with some really lovely views! I was very happy to be doing some exercise to be honest, def missing my regime, hehe J
The weather stayed dry for us the whole way and once we got to the top the view was yet another amazing one. We also we saw five dolphins swimming and jumping in the sea – very exciting as this was my first dolphin spot all trip!!
As we head back the heavens open and we get absolutely soaked. But to be fair it is still really warm, nothing like rain in Manchester!
Once back, had a free meal at the hostel, get ready, drank some goon (money is tight, desperate times for me now!!) and head out to the infamous Cheeky Monkies for some more disco dancing!! A carnage place, but good fun all the same!
Thursday morning we have to check out by 10am. The sun is shining so Sarah and I head out, pop to use some free WiFi then just head to the beach.
Bryon Bay is a really fun and pretty place. It is also very hippy and relaxed and it just reminded me of Glastonbury but in a town form and with a beach!! Could just see Heather and I walking around here in our wellies J
Had a lovely day just sitting in the sun, enjoyed exploring the area and watching the hippies!! We then head back to the hostel, get another free dinner (the most important part!) and get ready to get on the Greyhound overnight bus to SYDNEY!!! Just a 14hr journey but it is taking me to Sydney and I am sooooooo excited to finally get there!!
