We're moving base...from Brisbane to Melbourne, it was a bit sad but excited for the new place. All packed and ready to go...we began our journey from Brisbane at 7 am. First stop was Tweed Head, the border of QLD and NSW. From Tweed Head we continued our journey to Byron Bay, which is absolutely lovely :). We went to the most Easterly point in Mainland Australia and saw a rainbow over the lighthouse. Luckily we got in the car before it started to rain heavily.

Next stop was Coffs Harbour but it was raining heavily, I was only able to take a glimpse of the "Big Banana" and ate at this German restaurant, called Grandma House (I think).

On the way, Francis saw a quilt shop and so we stopped by there for a bit and got this cute Japanese fabric by Cosmo.
Our last stop for the first day was Wollongong and we were soo tired
