In amongst the wet weather we managed to find one fine day... Stephen jumped at the chance to leave Turtle behind and drive to the official beginning of the Great Ocean Road, turn round and drive back..stopping at many of the outlook spots and places of interest. I can't put them on here there are to many, this is just a sample to give you an idea of the beauty of this rugged coastline. This is the memorial to the diggers who after returning from the First World War, painstakingly, built this winding road. You can see the Arch in the background, which I believe is about the fourth that has been erected, the last one was burnt down in the terrible Ash Wednesday fires. The jacket on the rock behind me is so well sculptured that you want to pick it up. thinking someone had just put it there!
The next two are from Teddy's Lookout, just outside Lorne, it gives a really good idea of the cliff roads and estuary bends.
They don't call this the shipwreck coast for nothing...and as you can see you can get up close to see some of the ship that remains on this rough coastline.
Had to add this... I took it!!!!!!!!! Every turn and rise and fall of the road brought more scenery like we have not seen since we were in New Zealand.
