    You need to get out more often Ean, I got caught in a jam more than once getting in or out of Hidden Valley.
    If you don't like trucks, stop buying stuff.

    Ean.
    We spent a very relaxing 10 nights just north of where you were in Byron, (like you said, the light house is good) at Hastings Point. It is a coastal locality between Pottsville and Kingscliff. No crowds. We also did a day trip into the hinterland saw the natural arch crossed the border into Queensland and had lunch on the gold coast. Loved it but totally agree. Traffic and crowds suck.
    Regards
    Robbo

    Guess we had better get used to the traffic me thinks
    Cheers Ean

    We decided to see Byron Bay on the way past during the break, had the same experience. Massive traffic jam. Went up to see the lighthouse, but turned around when we reached the sign advising of parking fees...

    Not our cup of tea.

    that sick having to pay parking fees just to look at a light house, was the parking fees collected by the council or some dope head trying to raise cash for his next joint
