G'day peeps. And how be all of you? All well and good I hope. The weather here has been absolutely gorgeous for the last couple of days and the Great Ocean Road is proving a good trip (for the second and a half time around). We've had more time this time though, and a car, which makes all the difference. Phil, I didn't get chance to stop in at Warrnambool as Andy and Tina weren't too keen on the idea. Sorry about that.
Been doing loads of sight seeing too. Stopping off at random beaches for a dip in the freezing sea, a tree top walk (47m up in the canopy), saw the twelve apostles again, and am currently in the Grampians which are gorgeous. We went to Mackenzie Waterfall, The Balconies (rock formation with a stunning view) and the aboriginal museumy type thing today. Staying in an eco friendly hostel tonight. Everything is recycled including the shower water (only to flush the toilets though) and the place is lovely. If we had the car for longer I'd push to stay here for a bit longer but we have to be in Adelaide for tomorrow night.
Eating our dinner tonight we were invaded by Kookabarra's (recognised them off the cricket bats) and what I think were cockatoos. Walking back to the car after a fine meal Andy noticed two Kangaroos just munching grass in the park. The whole place is like a safari. Loads of insects too. Haha, playing scabble this evening (it's a quiet place) and two midges landed on the board. They looked to be mating and had aptly chosen the 'e' of the word vet to get down to it on. Caused a titer amongst. I won at scrabble by the way, but does the word 'mutings' exist?
