Australia Great Ocean Road

Over the summer of 2019/2020 we managed to get to a few lovely spots in Victoria.

We began in December 2019 with a lovely long weekend with family at Aireys Inlet just 135 km from home.

  

We did a day drive along the Great Ocean Road to the Twelve Apostles (320 km round trip).

The 243 km stretch of road along the coast is Heritage listed and is dedicated to soldiers killed during WWI. It was built by about 3,000 returned soldiers between 1919 and 1932.

Along the way we stopped to feed the birds at Kennett River. It is also the best place to spot koalas.

We all had fun on the zip line at Lorne.

A stop at the 12 Apostles is mandatory...

We had a lovely walk along the cliffs and down into Loch Ard Gorge named after the  Clipper ship That ran a ground nearby on 1 June 1878.

After lunch in Port Campbell we drove a little further to the iconic London Bridge that collapsed in 1990.

We also had a look at the Grotto.
