We spent two days with Steve and Sharon in Lenox Head, about 15K away from Byron Bay. They moved up from Melbourne late last year and are not missing it much . . .

Beach Walk
Minyon Falls
Byron Bay
Duncan and I were fortunate enough to spend a long weekend in Byron Bay, northern New South Wales, just near the Queensland border. Byron Bay the town is a bustling little place filled with hippies, a few yuppies, and in the summer swarms of European backpackers. Luckily it is winter here and it was very quiet. Ducan's friends Lucy and Wayne (and dog Jackie) have a place nearby in Ocean Shores. Byron Bay lighthouse in the distance.

Birds at Lake Eildon
Lake Eildon
Duncs' friends of 20 years, Eric and Maria, were nice enough to have us to their house at Lake Eildon for the Queen's Birthday long weekend. It was a little chilly. These next two photos are from their backyard, one at about 9am, and one a few hours later once the fog had rolled away. Note all the trees growing out of the middle of the lake--they grew there during the 10 years drought when there was no water in this part of the lake! When Eric and Maria bought their house a year ago they had to walk 10 mintues to the lake--now it is back up to their yard!
