Ok seriously, I'm so digging the Australian eastcoast. I'm quickly turning into a beach girl. The scenary is so beautiful here.
Ash and I took an overnight Greyhound from Sydney to Byron Bay, where we'll stay for 2 nights, before we head up to Frasier Island Wildlife Preserve to camp for about 3 days. Then we head up to Airlie Beach to take a FREAKIN sweet 3 day 2 night boat ride into the Whitsundays Islands. From there, we're planning to head up to Cape Tribulation and spend some time in a rainforest. With koalas and kangas and lots and lots and lots of sunshine!
We just booked out hostel in Byron Bay - 100 metres from the beach, and within walking distance of all kinds of bohemian/hippie goodness. Byron Bay is like a hippie enclave on the Australian East Coast - one could liken it to Sedona, Arizona. Many places advert Tarot readings and alignment treatments. Ash and I plan to make the most of this place and maybe get some spa treatments or even a haircut. We figure a haircut includes a free shampoo and blowdry...so we actually may end up waiting for that after we get back from three days of camping the Frasier....I'm already feeling sorry for those hairdressers(o:
We'll, we need to catch the bus to our hostel, I'm signing out for the next few hours. Get excited to hear from a guest blogger quite soon!
Love to you all,
Kate

What a wonderful travel writer you are! You do a great job capturing the essence of each place you stay. Keep them coming - I don't think I could ever do that 24 hour plane ride so I'm living vicariously through you :)
Love,
Heidi
