Great Ocean Road, Victoria

Left Balnarring yesterday morning early to get the 0700 ferry from Sorrento to Queenscliffe across Port Phillip Bay, a 45 min journey. It was very efficient driving on and off,,, not like our experience in Italy getting off the ferry with every car pushing and jostling jostling for position. This was very ordered and we were on our way to start our journey along the Famous Great Ocean Road. We stayed at Cumberland River Campsite which was beautiful as you can see in the pics. There has been a lot of rain so all the creeks are running rapidly and the ground is sodden. The road along certainly is very scenic and spectacular. Today we are at Apollo Bay. A lovely holiday town ( as is Lorne) some specci houses perched on hillsides. We are right over the road from the beach and very pleasing now to finally see the sun shine. Will move on tomorrow and have another night on the ocean road before we get to Port Fairy.
Reece is cooking fish tonight ... Some ling we got here. Ling is such an ugly fish. It is known as Rockling and is big, long , pink and a very ugly face. Daylight saving here means it doesn't get dark till 9pm. We are tucked up well before then.....


Love pen
