We are now in Byron Bay again. We actually left yesterday and went to Nimbin which is a very small town inland from Byron. It was a very cool experience. We camped at a place called granny's farm (funny considering it's run by 3 men). It was right by a creek and crawling with lizards which sounded much larger than they actually were because of the dried leaves they were running around on. There was a swimming pool and two golden retrievers and we were surrounded by horses in fields. It was definitely the most layed back place I have ever been. The culture there is completely hippified. The museum was amazing it was a house with like three or four rooms just completely stuffed full of art and newspaper clippings and the things, everything completley painted and covered. All about the native culture, how europeans came in and now how it's a complete hippy town. In the last room of the museum they sell weed. The whole town is apparently completely full of cameras but the town is just one short street with about 10 or 15 shops on it, and the police station right on the end. It was bizare and very cool. Back at the camp we went down to our van after dinner and the whole area was full of fireflies. It was very magical. None of us have ever seen them before. Also there were apparently platypus that lived in the creek right behind us, but they're nocturnal and we weren't fortunate enough to see them. Anyways we came back to Byron because we love it so much and we got back to our campsite and were extremely lucky to get the very last site. Spring break has just started here so the town is packed. Our timing has been good so far, we're having fun. We miss everyone!! xoxox
