Goodbye Byron!

Another perfect day.  This morning we said goodbye to Byron Bay.  Leaving Byron was reminiscent of our departure from Broome.  Sad to be leaving.

We couldn't resist one last visit to the lighthouse before departing and what should have been a twenty minute stop turned out to be an hour, two hours...whales, whales, and more whales.  Glorious. Coffee and cake (yes I had affogato) right at the top of Cape Byron.  What a view...I could have stayed forever.
After leaving Byron we had lunch at Ballina, more whales there...yummy lunch, I had vegetarian.
Arrived at Andrew's brother and his wife's house mid afternoon.  Sophie the golden Labrador was there to greet us too. 
We were treated to a barbeque dinner and had a good natter, getting to bed quite late tonight.

This is where the crazy hang gliders take off.

Byron Bay Lighthouse, Cape Byron.  Down there in that ocean is where all the whales are.
