A couple friends and I went to visit Yamba Australia on Saturday morning but that turned into a longer adventure. We had only planned for a nice drive and a visit to town with maybe a swim. But it turned out way different.

We got to Yamba a bit later than planned due to relaxing too much on the road. So we had lunch in town and then waited for our food to settle while we drove around Yamba. It is a fishing and surfing town right on the coast of Australia.

In the afternoon we headed off to the beach for some boogie boarding. I wanted to try out an action cam I just picked up.

The three of us had a great time and I got some very good footage. Some of this footage you can see here. The action cam performed quite well and got some good video of me catching some of the waves on the boogie board.

When it was time to leave, my friend could not find his keys. He had lost them in the ocean. Our clothes, phones and everything were locked in the car.

We called the roadside assistance to see if they could open the vehicle and waited. During the wait I got the awesome sunset footage you see at the end of the video.

We did eventually get into the vehicle and got a change of clothes but had to wait for the next day for someone to drive the 2 hours out to bring us a spare set of keys for the vehicle.

We spent the night in a hotel and had a lazy morning and then it was off to the beach again for some more waves.

We did not get home that night until late evening but it was a good weekend in Yamba.
