I drove up to Byron Bay with Mel and James. After a lunch in Byron. I and Jessica went to the beach. And Mel and James went over to some friens. (they ended up meeting up with a lot of friends and staying over somewhere. They came home in Sawtell the next day) The beach was to cold, but i did got in for a swim. After freezing to death and drying up a bit. Jessica was captured by a man that was making a sand sculpture. We looked at that for a long time. Micheal, Pat, Guy and the friends they went up for. (to Byron Bay) Pat and Guy wanted to be home before dark. So they went away early. I stayed with Jessica, Micheal and his friends. We ate at a restaurant which was very good. After a long goodbye. Micheal, Jessica and I went back home. It was already dark. We ended up on the wrong side of the road and went up to Brisbane.... We realised in time and turned around. Back to Sawtell. Still it took us more than 3 hours. We were home at half past 12. The next morning Jessica woke me up to see if I wanted to join her to the beach. To go bodyboarding. At the time we went Micheal joined us as well. Jessica let me ride her board a couple of times. Which went very well and I actually caught a couple of waves! Micheal went home a bit earlier then us and lent me his board so I could bodyboard with Jessica together. After a while we got cold and went home for a hot shower. In the evening I went with Micheal and Jessica to the carnaval. (kermis) Nearby Sawtell. I had a fun time with them. Seen lots of rides. Mel and James also dropped by for a little while. But didn't stay that long. The next day we (Mel, James and I) went home. And dropped by at Sophia for a little while. Because she stayed as a holiday in another house a little bit upcoast from Sydney. After that we went home and James and Mel went to a party of a friend of Mels'. The next morning I had my shower, breakfast etc. And went out for a long walk. Had already the feeling that something was hanging in the air at home. But when I came home I wasn't prepared for the letter there that asked me to leave. and that they would celebrate New Years Eve on their own. I called Anita to see if she wanted to take me in the house for the 2 weeks that are left for me here. (in Sydney) Wasn't a problem and I took all my stuff over to her. Annelies (my other aunt) was at Anita's as well. I called Michael because he had offered me a New Years Eve celebration as well. He wanted to see Anita and Annelies anyway. And was so kind to pick me up as well. So I still could see the fireworks. Also thanx to John a freind of Michael for the lovely evening. Michael and Jessica brought me back to Newtown and stayed there for the nicht as well. They left on New Years Day to go back home. (Adelaide) And I was completely out of business (exept for laundry) the rest of the day. Today I kicked myself. And I am repacking my back/day packs the right way. (in my hurry I messed that a bit up) Fixing some clothes. And went with Hans and Anita to buy some rugs for Hans' appartement at a sale. Did also did some groceriess with Anita. Wrote this updateand will soon return to my back/day packs.
