Anyone for a glass of wine?





















Evening everyone.  Sorry for the gap between entries, finding it hard to get internet access at some of theses hotels (Cheap anyway).  After leaving Quay West we headed back to Perth Airport (05:30, 4hr drive, in the dark, in the rain...avoiding the wildlife.  Worst drive of my life!)

Arrived into Adelaide and went to pick up our next little Hyundai.  Nice surprise...Europcar had upgraded the car to an Audi A3 1.8T (Very nice to drive along the Great Ocean Road!)

We had one night in Adelaide, one night in Robe, one night in Port Fairy and one night here in Apollo Bay.  We've had some amazing driving roads between Adelaide and Apollo Bay, taking in The Twelve Apostles.  Even though the weather was terrible, it was difficult not to be dumbstruck with views.  Sounds corny, but when you've seen it so many times in pictures, and it's now right there in front of you...it really was quite amazing.

We leave Apollo Bay tomorrow morning for what is promised to be the most stunning section of the Great Ocean Road (The road pretty much hugs the coastline all the way to Melbourne).
