Week 16

Week 16

Where We Went: Great Ocean Road (Port Campbell and Lorne)

First Moment Here: We grabbed a rental car in Melbourne and headed out to the end of the road (Port Campbell) to work our way back along the coast.  ​

Funniest Thing We Did: Chelsea came so close to getting pooped on by a bird that the splatter from it hitting the sidewalk sprayed her jeans.

Craziest Thing We Did: Drive some windy roads that made PCH look like nothin’.
​
Best Thing We Did: Sunset at the twelve apostles.  The “golden hour” as they call it, makes the scenery amazing.

Tastiest Thing We Did: Grocery shopped a lot to save money and didn’t drink for a few weeks…boring but cheap!

Coolest thing we Learned: The history of the Great Ocean Road which was founded during WWI for recreation has a ton of cool stories to go along with it, from shipwrecks to helicopter rescues!  

Biggest Surprise: Our Best Western, nothing fancy, cost $215 per night.  

Mystery Solved: The FLIES that are EVERYWHERE come from the desert to the coast for cooler air and are after your ears, nose, eyes and mouth for moisture.  So annoying.
