The Great Ocean Road Trip

We left Apollo Bay at about 8:30 and continued to drive along the Great Ocean Rd.  We made many stops at the various lookouts and attractions....especially the ones that had Earthcaches...the 12 Twelve Apostles, London Bridge, the Arch and the Grotto.....all are magnificient geological features of what happens when the ocean constantly pounds the limestone cliffs (we will post pictures later).  We dropped in at Port Campbell, Warrnambool, Port Fairy, Portland and on to Mt. Gambier where we are staying in a fairly nice motel. The sun shone all day but the wind was mild when we got out to explore.  At Mt. Gambier we have seen a beautiful carter lake called Blue Lake.  We are now sitting in an unnamed place for dinner so we can get our internet fix!!!! 

We will head out early tomorrow for Cape Jervis, where we are staying in a log cabin on a sheep ranch for the next 2 nights.  We will be on a tour to Kangaroo Island on Thursday.
