We landed in Brisbane at 7:15 pm (after a 4+ hour flight from Perth) and had our rental car by 8 pm😊. It was very dark and we were on the road again👍. Drove through Brisbane and past lots of high rises! Got to our hotel (“Elite”) in Gold Coast at 9 pm. Took a walk this morning and we were on the road again to Byron Bay, the most eastern point of Australia. What a great beach! Plenty of room to walk a long way. Had an interesting veggie burger called “The Tree Hugger” and of course some chocolate gelato😋. After an afternoon at the beach we headed to another beach area in Port Macquarie for the night.
