Mullumbimby/Byron Bay - 17.01.2013 to 22.01.2013

Over the border we go from Qld to NSW, where we decided to camp at Mullumbimby. Where the hell is Mullumbimby? Well if you go just inland of Brunswick Heads or Byron Bay, that is where you will find Mullumbimby. A cute little town on the northern rivers, where we camped for $25 a night at the local leagues club with power and water, showers etc. Our first day we decided to go for a drive up into the mountains to where the roads are narrow but the scenery very picturesique with rolling hills, green pastures and Mount Chincogan in the background.

Taking off to Byron Bay for the day and boy was that a bustling little place. People everywhere, cars banked up, to find a park was something you had to wish for. Very pretty area, once again with a spare couple of million you could easily settle yourself here. It is no longer the hippieville of bygone years, I think they have all been moved to Nimbin, but more the yuppieville town of today. Crazy holiday place but I would have liked to have looked into the shops here with a purse full of money as there were some gorgeous little dress shops aplenty, not just your main stream ladies shops. Maybe next time..........

We ended up staying a couple more days at Mullumbimby only because we had some issues with the brakes on the car and had to wait until Monday to see if we could get them looked at. The local brake place was busy however so we decided to move on.
