Great Ocean Road!!!!!
What an amazing drive already! Hats off to dad for his driving!! We got the obligatory flag pic in which was great!! Bells beach was a must....i needed to tread the sands that Keanu and Patrick tread in Point Break......swoooon.....suprised i didnt kiss the sand!!! No surf lessons on that beach unfortunatley so couldnt pretend to be Mr. Swayze!
We stop for lunch in Lorne which is a nice little seaside place. I say seaside....it doesnt do it justice. Im finding that with taking pics, it just doesnt do it justice.
We head along to Apollo bay, wev booked a place ahead there as its labour day wknd so all the Aussies are off n bookin a place seems to be tricky. We get to the beachcombers motel......its smaller than a match box but wev booked but thankfully only for one nite so we head out down the bay and find a plush apartment and book it for the sat n sunday so we can use it as a base and see the sights around here.
So we finally stop for a couple of beers n a wifi connection (8 dollars for an hour! Shouldv asked b4 i paid ha!) worth it to keep my nearest n dearest up to date with our travels tho x
No doubt we will get washed up n head out for some scran n beers later so will blog again tomoro xxx

Simon Oh bless ur cotton socks, don't run out of cotton wool gem u need to wrap up in it. Get ur arse over to toyko joes or some backpackers hostel, don't worry about the fleas u get used to em, and yes the toilets are supposed to smell like that! . I can't think of anything funnier then u and dad in a backpackers hostel, you'd probably get chucked out for asking for something silly like clean sheets. Xxx glad u having a top time, I'm loving this blog thing xxxx
Jan Nice to read the family's kind (!)!comments - esp Simon's on backpackers luxury appts. Gemma if you find a Four Seasons it will be more your style (and mine). Martin wont care as long as it serves beer. Simon, I think its your turn next to travel with Martin - how about the Priory - there's one in Derbyshire. Jan (sensible sister/aunty).
