Tales From a Female Traveller

Luce
Just a picture of me running away from the camera in pitch black darkness. The only light came from the speedlite on the camera.
My friend and I took a road trip up the NSW coast and stayed in Byron Bay for a night before heading onto Queensland. We were camping at a ground just outside of the town centre and were hiding out in our tent because of the mass of Canetoads that had invaded the campsite outside. Some red wine and some music from the guys camping next to us and we had an instant party... which... somehow included me fixing on the speedlite and stumbling around the camp ground at midnight happy snapping at the campers whose only issue was that we made sure we had red eye reduction on!!!
I was always under the impression that cane toads were only in Queensland mostly, but Byron Bay is quite close to the border and even at the town of Maclean. We stayed in Maclean where the sugar cane grows higher than the roof tops with friends of my friend Byron and on the first night I was forced to "hold" a cane toad. Not exactly something I set out to do, but managed to amuse everyone with my girly squeals as it squirmed in my hand.
