Day 114 Mon 04 Aug

The rain was still falling so we had a leisurely breakfast and read our books, later that night I checked the weather information and Byron Bay had 50 mm over that day and a half. By lunch time I was feeling claustrophobic so after lunch we headed off inland to check out Minyon Falls. It was an enjoyable drive through narrow country roads zig-zaging back and forth up and down steep hills. There was not a lot of water going over the falls but the drop was pretty spectacular, about 100 mtrs into a gorge.

The water flow in NSW rivers has been much less than what we saw in Queensland, much of the north eastern sections of NSW have had little rain in the last 6 months
