| Let Me Call This Meeting To Order |
This morning we left the Big 4 campground in Melbourne and headed to the Great Ocean Road. This on of the best known drives in Australia. Something like the Cabot Trail? It starts just south of GeeLong and runs along the coast. It was hand built just after the First World War by returning soldiers. We cruised along stopping at most of the viewpoints to stare and take pictures. At Lorne we pulled into the information centre to get some brochures and view a history presentation of the building of the road. Up the street we stopped into a roadside tavern and had a beer and some lamb cabobs. We also managed to Skype with Kit for a while. Great view from the outdoor terrace and there is a whole flock of Sulphur Crested Cockatoos hanging around looking for handouts.
We continued on again for another hour or so to our campground at Cape Otway, where we had booked a site for the night. Pulling in at just before 5:00 we setup and went for a walk. There are wild Koalas all over the place and we took a bunch of pictures of them feeding. Back at the van we heated up some supper and settled down. It is quite chilly here tonight and we had to put on our warmest clothes.
