Great Ocean Road




Yesterday we drove on the Great Ocean Road. We left so early that the first Information Point was closed.



If the coastal line near Barwon Heads was beautiful, here it is amazing. We took a lot of photos.



First stop in Aires Inlet to see the lighthouse, Eagle Rock, Table Rock and Sentinel Rock. They were a small taste of the Twelve Apostles.



Next stop: Lorne. Teddy’s Lookout has a nice view, but Erskine Falls were fantastic. We also did some bushwalking near the river. We only can hear the sound of silence (nothing to do with Simon and Garfunkel, obviously) and the water flowing.



We left the Falls and we went to the beach. Oh, no!!! We left our swimsuits in Barwon Heads!!!



We had lunch in a restaurant in our guide book. Roasted salmon for Alessandra, fish and chips for Gianni and squid’s ring for Santi. All good and cheap.



We leaved to go to Cape Otway. Another lighthouse. Very nice, but in Victoria, they raise fly, not only cows.



Leaving the lighthouse we stopped to see some koalas who are sleeping on Eucalyptus trees.



We passed Princetown and stopped at Twelve Apostles. It was a breath breaking view.



Just to say: Apostles are not twelve, because some of them crushed down with time.
