NSW has these lovely wooden train stations. Unfortunately we have to box up our bicycles for the journey tomorrow and there are no boxes to be had at Katoomba station. Luckily Bikeminded bike shop at Wentworth Falls had some and gifted these to us.

How gorgeous is this as our home for the next couple of days?

Kurrara was built in 1901 as a guest house and is still in use.

Bikepacking from Bridge to Sydney takes us through National Parks, on beaches and unfortunately stretches on the Motorway.

Bikepacking through the swamp in National park Bundjalung. 5 minutes into the park we saw kangaroos, we did not wanted to pose for a picture.

Bike packing led us to this pristine beach near Byron Bay. That is almost pristine. Every couple of metres we saw a dead Shearwater. It's it bird flu?

Captured the magic of nature today – vibrant algae clings to the rocks as waves crash and retreat. There's something so calming about watching the water dance over these textures.

One more bird picture, an Australian white ibis. They are everywhere in Brisbane.

A couple practice ballroom dancing in the park at 8 am. What a wonderful way to start the day.
