Cairns to Sydney Road Trip Day 6

This morning we got up and had breakfast with Johnson before getting back on the road. He really wanted to cook some fish for us, so Allan took one for the team. While Johnson cooked the fish, I had a quick shower which was nice. When I came out, Allan and Johnson were sharing the fish, rice, and some green beans. Allan said the fish was pretty good and cooked well too. Johnson just kept feeding him. I had a lot of watermelon. Once the bowl was empty, he cut some more! Eventually, he also had some things to do, so we all left together.

It was a long drive back to Sydney, and Byron Bay was on the way, so we stopped there around lunchtime. We drove through the bustling town crawling with tourists and locals alike and there were many surfers too. We continued to the edge of the town towards the lighthouse. Before we went for a walk up to the lighthouse and Australia mainland's most eastern point, we had coffee and some ice cream.

The lighthouse was stereotypical but had a little rectangular building connected at the front, and was up high on the cliff. We walked around the lighthouse and down the cliff to the most eastern point. While we were down there, a group of young people (2 white guys and an Asian couple) were all chatting. A guy from Lithuania took our picture for us, and got to chatting with Allan. We then started talking with the other guy in the group who was American on a bigger trip. He had a drone, so he shared his drone video of the lighthouse and cliffs with us. So we got a drone video which is pretty cool!

After we got the video, we realized the time and said our goodbyes. We quickly popped our heads into the lighthouse and saw the small museum of different artifacts before getting back in the car and heading down to Sydney. Once again, it was a pretty boring drive all highway back to Sydney. We parked up in Maroubra outside Rosemary and Brad's house. The cockroaches were back too in full force which was not great, but luckily it's our last night in this van.Baca lagi
