byron, brisbane, surfers paradise, stradebroke island

ok so after sydney i knew i had to travel quick to see my friends and get some other stuff done, got myself a bus pass(1st one for oz) and headed up to byron, about 12 hours overnight!

ok so i managed to see my mates for about 10 days which was really cool, wish i had one month longer then i could of spent the whole 3 weeks with them and see fraser with them and noosa which i missed out on! after doing fraser on my own with a tour i headed straight away once on mainland all the way up to cairns! 22 hours on the same coach! plus i had the shits from fraser and whole of bus journey! not good!
