Queensland road trip 2024 – Byron bay – Day 4

Hi everyone.

We woke up to a beautiful day in Byron Bay. We started off the morning by going for a walk around the holiday park we are staying at. There is a very highly rated little cafe just next door to the park called Folk. They make their own almond and oat milk. We of course grabbed an oat milk latte (we’re in Byron you have to right?) to drink while on our morning walk. It was delicious and a nice walk. There was a big inflatable jumping pillow that we thought Julian would love. He in fact did not love it at all.

After that we got in the car and drove 10 minutes down the road for our first activity of the day – The Farm. The farm is literally what it sounds like except that it is set up with a fancy restaurant and boutique bakery. They do farm tours and feedings, they also grow all the produce for the restaurant at the farm. They also have a playground that was for older kids but Julian was surprisingly good at it. We walked around looking at the animals and Julian loved the chickens the most. He made friends with one. We also bought a berry danish and some farm-made strawberry jam.

We went into Byron Bay town to check it out and walk around. It’s really beautiful and had a cool chill vibe.

Lovely beach view
Bubble tea all day every day

We had Korean from a Korean street food place for lunch and at it near the beach. It was excellent.

Back to the cabin and busta had his (not long enough nap) then we got into our swimmers and walked to the incredible splash pool at our holiday park. It took Julian a very, very long time to warm up to it but we were patient and it paid off. Unbelievably cool splash park for free, at our accommodation.

It’s not that bad, I promise

Having so much fun now
That’s too much fun, scared again

After this we went back into town to walk around and get some pizza from a little Italian restaurant called Il Buco to eat overlooking the beach.

Byron is really quite nice
Garlic and herb entree and Margherita – classic
Bit shit at eating pizza – he’s trying though
Don’t take picture of me eating!! Too bad, so sad.

We are on our way to the Sunshine Coast tomorrow after spending enjoying our last morning in Byron Bay.

Ronnie, Aimee and Julian.
