The Great Ocean Rd Day 1






Not sure that a Nissan X-Trail is Tim’s idea of a dream car for a road trip 😕
 

First stop Torquay the home of surfing.














The memorial arch to the WW1 survivors who built this amazing road.












Just in case we forgot!


















We stopped to take in the scenery so many times it’s hard to choose pics that reflect the magnificence of it. The road hugs the curves of the ocean and there are so many spectacular places to stop and take in the views.

So good to be back by the ocean at our overnight stop, Apollo Bay.

Also a cheeky cockatoo tried to nick my chips in Lorne 😋
