The Great Ocean Road

ERSKINE FALLS NEAR LORNE. Lovely to be able to visit some rain forest and green rolling country after all the drought stricken areas that we have seen around Victoria. The other day coming to Apollo Bay from Ballarat there was a lot of dust and see on the news tonight that there have been dust storms rolling across to Sydney.

EAGLE ROCK, AIREYS INLET The Great Ocean Road really is spectacular, today we drove through to Torquay with the plan of stopping off at the lookouts on our way back to Apollo Bay, alas the weather turned just before we got to Lorne. Weather and time permitting we will back track to there.

One consolation, we saw a koala in the wild, up a tree at the side of the main road, funnily enough a 100 metres away was another perched on a branch overhanging the road - very exciting, just need to see a wombat now, have certainly seen a lot of their pooh.
