Elsa Pataky carries her pet lizard on her shoulder at a deli near Byron Bay

They have been living in Byron Bay for eight years after leaving the bright lights of Los Angeles back in 2014.

And Chris Hemsworth and Elsa Pataky well and truly looked like locals as they stepped out to visit a deli in nearby Newrybar over the weekend.

The couple were joined by their three children – and the family’s pet bearded dragon lizard.

Elsa carried the reptile on her shoulder as the famous Hollywood couple left the eatery with some tasty treats. 

The Spanish actress, 45, was makeup free, and showed off her trim pins in a pair of tiny bohemian style shorts. 

She teamed the hot pants with a printed yellow T-shirt and a cream knitted cardigan.  

Meanwhile, Thor hunk Chris, 38, flaunted his muscular frame in a white T-shirt and grey shorts. 

He shielded his famous face with designer sunglasses and a cap. 

The actor looked happy to be home after spending almost six months in Europe and USA filming Extraction 2.

The Hemsworth family welcomed their pet lizard into the household back in June 2019.

At the time, the couple’s eldest child, India Rose, nine, took the reptile to show and tell at school.

Elsa and her children – India and twin sons Tristan and Sasha, eight – recently found themselves trapped in their $30million Byron Bay home after its entrance was ‘completely flooded’ during a previous bout of extreme weather.

‘She was there on her own with her three young children because Chris is currently overseas filming [Netflix movie Extraction 2],’ a source told The Daily Telegraph.

Elsa was said to be ‘stuck in her house for several days with no phone reception’.

Last month, she praised those helping to save people in flood-stricken northern NSW.

The Fast & Furious actress shared a series of photos on Instagram of the flood crisis and thanked the heroes on boats and jet-skis who went out to rescue locals.

‘Northern Rivers and beyond had been hit by the worst floods in history. People have spent hours waiting on rooftops to be rescue,’ she wrote.

‘Thanks to all those who are able to help save people and animals stranded by the floodwaters, you are the real heroes.

‘So amazing to watch how everyone pulls together in a disaster and helps the community. Our hearts go out to those affected by the floods. Stay safe.’
