BYRON BAY





From Coffs Harbour, we drove up to Byron Bay. At Byron Bay, we vistited Australia's most easterly point and enjoyed a fantastic sunset. While we were there, we saw some whales, it is currently migration time for the Humpback whale who heads north to the warmer waters to breed. We didn't see them breaching (which would have been great) but we could see them surface and blow air every now and then. Isn't it amazing that they know where to go as they make this long trek north with such "enthusiasm"! (for all you Character First people out there!)

The next morning we got up early and returned to this most easterly point to see the sunrise. Unfortunately it was shrouded in cloud and so was a bit of a fizzer, but we were very excited to see some dolphins swimming at the base of the cliff where we stood. There was about four of them and they would surf in on the waves and then return to frolic and play in the water. They are such fun animals and it looked like they were have a super time in the early morning amongst the waves and surf. They seemed to be a great example of how to start the day - with energy and enthusiasm and having fun, and it reminded me of these words of the Master Teacher "I have come that they might have life and have it to the full", may you have life to the full today.
