    Byron Bay to Ballina to Brunswick

    2. november 2020, Australia ⋅ ⛅ 23 °C

    We woke at the campsite and it was time to leave our life of luxury and fans and got showers behind.
    We packed up the roof, then cooked breakfast, then had our showers and then put on a wash.
    We left and drove to another campsite near by as we were thinking that we might need to stay at one so we could prove that we were not in a hotspot area. We rang the Queensland border and they basically advised that they didn't know what we needed to provide to show we had not been in a hot spot area and then it was up to the police on the border check on the day. So that wasn't a great help so we are kind of second guessing it all now.
    We drove to Lennox head and walked around and had a coffee and then we drove to Ballina. We stopped in Coles and bought chicken and had lunch there.
    We left Ballina and as were driving out the van broke down just at a roundabout. We managed to start it again and then we just got a bit down the road and it stopped again. We ended up leaving it off for over an hour for it to fully cool off. While we were there I folded the clothes we had washed to be put away and Jake phoned mechanics but none were available until next week. After the hour we restarted it and it worked!! We drove down the road and didn't turn it off until bed time almost in case it went again. I was bursting to go to the bathroom so we drove to one and then we went to Brusnwick head. We went for a little walk around the town. We didn't bother have dinner we just shared a banana as we were still quite full from lunch . We drove to the rugby pitch and we stayed there for the night.    Les mer

    Byron Bay

    1. november 2020, Australia ⋅ ⛅ 21 °C

    We woke up and we were quite hungover. I think our main issue was that we didn't have water. I don't know we ran out but it was quite a mistake. We had showers. Jake went to the disability shower so he could sit down in it 😅 he was being quite the drama queen all day.
    We got ourselves together and set off for the market in the main beach. We stopped in Aldi on the way and got some water.
    The market was so big and so warm! We got some gifts at it which was good but we weren't in the best state for it 😆 we ended up spending most of the day there though.
    We were going to go home and cook but we decided we were moving to slow so we got a burger for dinner and it was so nice. We went back to the site and took it easy, we had our showers and went to bed early.    Les mer

    Byron Bay

    31. oktober 2020, Australia ⋅ 🌧 25 °C

    We woke at the campsite. We were a bit tired as we had woke a few times. I went and had a shower. We done our stretches and Jake went for a run but I couldn't go. I put all our clothes on for a wash. We haven't been over wearing the same clothes much as we have a washer and dryer on site. It costs a fiver extra but it's not too much and we have been enjoying wearing fresh clothes especially with our warm showers.
    When he came back we tidied up the van a bit and sorted things out. Then we sat and read our books. There is big rain due. I done more of my exercises and Jake done more of his. He went to have a shower and then we made chicken sandwiches for lunch which were lovely. Then the rain started and we got all the bits from lunch cleaned and put away.
    The rain, thunder, lightening and hailstones was mad! We were stuck in the van for a good while. It eventually stopped and we went to go look for the night markets which were cancelled last week because of the rain. And of course they werent on again! We were going to go back and cook food but there was so many people out and about we decided to get some wine and pizza and eat at the park beside the beach as there was so many people out and about because of Halloween. We went back to the campsite and drank a bit more. I decided to get my shower and then Jake went out and got some more wine. And we didn't even finish it all before we went to bed. Can't handle the session anymore after being off it for so long we think.    Les mer

    Byron Bay

    30. oktober 2020, Australia ⋅ 🌙 22 °C

    We woke and had a banana. I am like an old woman moving around, the issue with my hip is back 🙃. Maybe I didn't stretch enough but also it was the closest to 5k I had ever got yesterday so maybe it was just all a bit much. I was raging. So I rang around and all the physios in Byron were booked up and then I managed to get a appointment with an oestopath at 11.50 am as they do dry needling. The only bad thing is it was almost an hours way away so we had to take down the awning to drive. We got there and Jake waited outside and I went in. The girl was called Eliza. She checked everything and was really good. She done dry needling down my thigh and massaged it and then in my hip and massaged there. She also gave me a few exercises to do.
    After we drove back to Byron and we went to the campsite. We left the van there rather than driving into the town as parking is dear. Jake got a burrito and I got a toasted cheese sandwich for lunch it was so nice.
    We had a walk around the town and sat on the grass near the sea for a while. We walked back to the campsite and read our books. After we got showers and decided to go out for food. We got a take away burger and it was so nice. We walked about around the town after and then went back to the campsite. We sat outside for a bit and then went into bed. We were quite tired but new people moved in all around us and the lads next door were so loud. Jake had to wack on the van to get them to shut up as they were playing music and were so loud. They stopped thank God.    Les mer

    Byron Bay

    29. oktober 2020, Australia ⋅ ⛅ 24 °C

    We woke at Byron and done our exercises and had our lovely warm showers.
    We took it easy for the day and it rained for most of it so we were stuck in the van.
    Then that evening it stopped so we decided to go for a run. I ran 4.74k which was my furthest to date but I think I have done in my hip which is not ideal 🙃
    We went back to the campsite and stopped at Woolworths on the way and cooked dinner.    Les mer

    Byron Bay

    28. oktober 2020, Australia ⋅ ☁️ 22 °C

    We woke at the campsite. It is so nice knowing waking up that there is a toilet near you if you are bursting to go. When I woke Jake was spreading reading, he wants to read as much as he can before the year is over. Jake went for a shower and I finished the video of photos/videos for Dylan's 18th b day in November.
    Then I went for my shower. We were planning on making breakfast/lunch in the campsite but then realised we were out of Ketchup. We set off for Woolworths to get more but then when we were out there we decided to just eat out and cook what we had in tomorrow instead. It was delicious and I saw Tasha from home and away. She is as stunning in real life. They are also filming a movie with Nicole Kidman in Byron at the moment and they must have been filming in the town today as there was big trucks everywhere. It was cool too see and some vintage cars. Then Jake went to get his hair cut and we had a look around the shops. Then we went to Woolworths and got bits for a curry for dinner.
    When we got back to the camp we chatted with our neighbours a bit and read our books. He is from Cananda and she is from New Zealand and he was telling us how we made a rainforest on his property and trained the fish in the river at his house with dog nuts. There was crazy thunder and lightening and as soon as there was a break in the rain we ran to the communal area to cook.
    We were talking to a guy called Michael McDonald from Louth and his girlfriend Britney. He moved here when he was 13 with his family to Perth and now he is living in Coogee and plays for Waratahs (rugby) they were both really nice.
    We went back to our van after and shared a bottle of wine and read. We put candles to stop the mosquitos too our neighbours thought it was us trying to be romantic 😆    Les mer

    Brunswick to Byron Bay

    24. oktober 2020, Australia ⋅ ☁️ 21 °C

    We woke at Brusnwick at the oval. Two vans parked so close beside us which was annoying and ment very little wind was going through the van even though we had 2 doors open.
    We left there and drove back to the bathrooms and where we slept the other nights. The weather was spitting the odd bit or rain and it was given. So we done our workout and just got it done before it started to lash. Then we had our fruit and just people watched and watched things on our phone. The rain stopped so we decided to walk around the town of Brunswick and we had a look around the shops and got a coffee.
    We just got back to the car when it started to rain again. We drove to Byron and up to the lighthouse to have a look. There is some really nice views but the weather was wrecking views some so we will have to go back up when it's nice again.
    The weather was non stop so we decided to go into a campsite for the night as it ment we could have the fan on, as we prob wouldn't be able to leave doors open with the rain. We eventually signed in and drove to our patch. Its a really nice campsite. We drove back into the town as the rain was so heavy and we food. We had a laugh getting up the awning again as it was bucketing down and it seemed like each time Jake took out the hammer to put the things in the ground it got heavier 😆. We eventually had it all sorted and it was so handy. Jake went to get his shower first and then I had mine. The showers were so warm and lovely it was the cleanest I have felt in a while. Then we put on a wash and dried and we watched SAS Australia. We woke during the night needing a wee but other than that we had a great sleep and it was so nice to know we didn't have to move on because a ranger was coming or we shouldn't have been there.
