The Byron Blog #32
Hello All.Well, I have returned from my 10 day adventure to Byron Bay and the Gold Coast. And I am well.
The Byron Bay section has been thoroughly blogged, but for my own advantage, I am going to write about my 2 nights on the Gold Coast.
I stayed avec my friend, Charlotte. She is damn cool.
The first night she had to work, so i stayed home and visited their family restaurant. They just renovated it, so it was good to see the new upgrades. It's a french restaurant in Broadbeach (the restaurant district of the Gold Coast)
But that day, I forgot, we went to Caville Ave. Which is like a really small, and really commercial Chapel St. Or there abouts. It's where the main schoolies festivities took place. There were like 30,000 kids there in the 1st week of schoolies. crazy!
The bus trip to QLD was interesting. Sat next to a nice gentleman from finland. he was backpacking with his girlfriend, who went up to QLD a day earlier. He was quite looker too. But his english wasn't so tres bien.
Then on the Wednesday, we were going to go to Wet n Wild, but didn't as Charl was sick, so she worked instead, and I hung out at Pacific Fair for a while. Which was really good. As I prefer being by myself rather than with lots of people. I bought 2 CD's which are ace.
Then that night we went back to Caville Ave and met up with Chris Mathieson, who i haven't seen in a looong time. so it was good to see him again. then I tried to do a deal with neil. but apparently he doesn't smoke dope. so that was poo.
Then we came home after going down to the beach and all that kind of stuff. Charlotte is a crazy crazy driver. well, she just speeds... a lot. Did I mention she crashed her last car?
Then yesterday I woke early, packed my things, minus my shoes, which are still up north and travelled to the airport. There, I met with the others, and we flew on a very turbulant trip home.
Back in melbourne, Loz lost her phone for a few hours, and Lisa lost her suitcase. Naturally, Lisa chucked a rager at the Virgin Blue team. poor kids.
So I am home safe, with a killer tan and some awesome memories, new friends, and stronger relationships. I also have a new room. Mum decided to give it a makeover, but it's only half done. I think she still wants to paint, and get new curtains.
That is all.
peace out.
p.s if you are interested, this is the front, and the back of the Byron Blog.
p.p.s here is a picture by Amy and kate. I have no idea when they did it.
