Byron Bay Adventures

We arrived at Ballina airport and drove to Melissa & Ben's house who very kindly had us stay for the first couple of days we arrived in Byron. We had lots of amazing jams!

Jared and I busked outside Fundamental Foods on the main street. We also played on the Bay FM radio joined by our friends Greg & Rachelle with their daughter Harley who came down from Brisbane to visit.

We stayed at The Arts Factory for three nights in one of there little cube rooms. We never got a chance to take a dip, a bit too cold!

Jared found a critter friend

The night of the Luna eclipse we went down to the beach with our guitars and were joined by a group of friendly folks who jammed along with us.

The Fabulous multi-talented Kathryn Jones! We were lucky enough to stay with Kathryn and her family for a couple of days which was awesome. There's Jared jamming in the back at the Mullumbimby RSL open mic night. We were totally blown away by the awesome music! Ian from Wolfmother playing Jared's guitar, his group was one of my favs.

Mullumbimby Farmers Market ...... Awesome!

While at the Mullum open mic night we were spotted by the lovely couple Darren & Mischelle Managers of The Coorabell Peppers Resort. They invited us to come and play a concert at their resort which was beautiful!

We found this book in a shop, so true.

We had an amazing time in Byron and made some really awesome friends, we look forward to catching up with again soon! Now it was time to begin the journey south to Melbourne, we got this sweet FREE ride on the Transfer car website, other than the tacky dragon on the side it was a wicked van kitted out with all our camping needs. When we picked this van up from Brisbane, it was just on rush hour traffic and getting dark when our GPS ran out of batteries and we didn't have a car charger yet! We ended up 3 hours late to Greg and Rachelle's house but we made it!

Freeway! The beginning of our journey south.
