Or at least trying to!! Wow, what a great day. Beautiful sunshine all day- a game of spot the cloud would have ended 0-0. We (myself and Andre-a guy staying at the same hostel) drove about 20km south of Byron to go surfing. It was very hard work to paddle out but was worth it. The longest i was on a wave for was probably only abut 2.5 seconds- it was a bit too big for me, but there were dolphins swimming around us which was pretty cool. The waves were awesome, 8-10ft high, perfect right-breaking barrels. Some of the locals that were out there were amazing surfers, riding waves for hundreds of metres. Have had a more relaxed day today. We (myself and 3 other guys in the dorm) walked up to Byron lighthouse and the most easterly point in mainland oz. We also was humpback whales on their migration so i now have several photos of the sea where i have mis-timed photographing the whales launching out the water. It's really nice here in Byron but I may move soon cos Andre has said he'll give me a lift up to the gold coast. Next stop Surfers paradise.
Hope you get some summer over there.

Hey bro!
Sound like you are having a great time. I expect the surfing was a little bit different to all those years ago in Cornwall and Ireland!!
You will not be suprised that we are still having lots of rain!! Could have used a surfboard on the little river running down my road the other day!!!
