... streches of it. I walked through a freshwater creek, Eli Creek, which dumps vast amounts of freshwater forced up from the subterraneal water table out to sea. The freshwater lakes were a real high point. Getting to Lake Wabby involved a hot and sweaty hike up rainforest covered hills, and then over a vast inland sand-dune system, but it was worth it. The water here is 100% pure fresh water, and swimming in it was just amazing. Another lake I swum in was Lake ...

In the morning we had the last chance to surf so everybody tryied to surf some big waves. After lunch we drove with the bus up to Byron bay. I had not booked a accom. in Advanced so I had to search a BB. After 1hour I found one how I can stay the next 3 nights.

Effin lines.<br><br>Right, so yesterday I did basically nothing. Beached it almost all day, looked for some trail runners so I can go running and ship home my mountaineering boots which I realized are total overkill, and rented a bicycle. Why?

Next day we headed for the lighthouse: and hours walk from our hostel, along the coastline to the most easterly point in the whole of Australia. We took with us our new Swedish friend Sofya,,, we do keep meeting these Swedes. From the lighthouse, the view to the east on the this lovely clear day was sea sky and nothingness, twas fabulous.

The facilities and accommodation on site were excellent and it is very well kept by its owners.<br><br>The night before Christmas Eve we met up in a local bar (Railway inn) with our group for some food a drinks.
