We're back... or Byron Bay Part II

We returned last night after our mini break in this beautiful part of Australia.

 We are all revitalised and refreshed and it's good to be home in Melbourne although we all fell in love with Byron Bay. No wonder with sunsets like the one above in the first two photographs. In the second photo darling daughter is taking her own photos of the sunset too.
 We stayed just up this little hill on Lighthouse Road...
 Cute lime green frog above hiding amongst the leaves.
 Above photo - spot the dolphins. You'll  have to look very carefully though - middle of the photo - small black fins!  (no, NOT sharks!)
 Cape Byron - the most Easterly point of the Australian mainland. 
My new sandals from Hermes enjoyed their inaugural outing too.. Here they are at Watego Beach.

Next post I will tell you about the shopping... there were a few very lovely and extremely tempting shops in Byron Bay...

(and thank you Kate B for your great suggestions of where to eat in Byron - in the previous post we had just had breakfast at the place you mentioned- the Cafe on the Beach (2nd photo in that post) and we also went to the Tapas place on the Balcony you suggested - lovely.)

  10. I know that places like the ones you posted, exist, but I have never even thought that I could visit one.
    Therefore it is so nice of you to share your pictures. Thank you.

  12. Byron Bay looks absolutely gorgeous. Great images, they really make me feel like going there. Think I'd love going anywhere in Oz - such a fantastic country. Hm...any chance you could extend your offer of letting me visit until next year if I'm in better health then...? ;)

    Lucky you got to see some dolphins, too - I've only seen dolphins once in the wild, on a island hopping tour in Greece in the 90's. It was an awesome experience that I would truly enjoy should I get to see it once again.
