And here is my last entry before heading back to Sydney for the last few days and Jo's flight home. The pictures are all up on the board from the last two entries - Whitsundays, Fraser Island, and now Byron Bay. I'll have all my pictures up on facebook properly after Christmas. On our first day in Byron, we met up with Junayd, Tasmin, and some of …

Byron Bay

A travel blog entry by basmaartje

Byron Bay Het was de bedoeling om te stoppen in Coffs' Harbor, maar de ervaringen van anderen waren: klein stadje waar niet veel gebeurt. Toen ik vervolgens in de bus een inwoner sprak die door een tragisch noodlot is geboren zonder gevoel voor humor, en ons gesprek na twee zinnen al eindigde in een onaangename stilte, wist ik genoeg: door naar …

Us Against Clouds!

Arriving in Byron was a little disappointing due to the rain, so far Australia had been slightly disappointing on the weather front! It managed to stop raining briefly when we got off the bus and walked to our hostel, just a five minute walk away. Our room was an eight bed dorm with a nice bathroom and, compared to other rooms around us that seemed …

Lastnight didn't work out as planned. On our voucher for the free meal it said that the kitchen was open until half past nine, we arrived at 9:20 but apparently it closed at 9pm. *******n. We ended up getting a dominos pizza. When we were ordering we saw some guys that we met in Surfers Paradise. They had a voucher that if you tool your pizza to …

Byron Bay via Steve Irwin's Zoo

Sleeping in a proper bed in Hervey Bay was sooooo good and set us up for another day of driving as we decided to head straight to Byron Bay although there was plenty of places that we could have stopped at along the way. One of them that we did stop at for a couple of hours en route was Steve Irwin's Zoo - the Tigers were the highlight there and …

    Still a good spot

    The Aquarius has a great location, close to the beach and right in the centre. Their large rooms don't make you feel like you're sharing it with 7 other people. The balconies in each room make it very easy to socialize with your dorm mates as well. The bar is also a cool spot to hang out until you continue the party elsewhere.
    The only minor issues:
    There is only 1 bathroom to share for a room with 8 people.
    One of the ladies behind reception who was always grumpy and had a chip on her shoulder.
    Also a little annoying is that they wouldn't give out the stamp to get into the other bars until after midnight which made them useless...tip: try and ask for the stamps after you buy a drink but make sure you get it early.

    Other than that, the hostel is great and I'd definitely head back there again when I visit Byron!
