Yesterday was our all-day bus tour of the Great Ocean Road. We left at 8:00am and returned at 9:30am. A long day, but packed with amazing sights to see. It started in the sun, but we soon were in the rain for a good part of the morning. Many stops, including a chance to see koalas in the wild, and feed birds out of hand. The highlight was a visit to a rock formation in the ocean known as the 12 Apostles, near Port Campbell. While here, we took a helicopter tour, flying at about 1,000 feet, over the ocean, to get pictures and a bird's eye view of the formation below. The picture is from Pam's seat, on the right side.
Today is a low-key day. Skies are gray, but it isn't supposed to rain. We are going to ride the tram to St Kilda's Beach, and then this afternoon, I hope to take a tour of the Melbourne Cricket Grounds. Tomorrow, we head to Port Douglas, in the north end of the country. Warmer weather in store, as it is 34C there today, and just 19C in Melbourne.
I may post again tonight, otherwise, it may not be until late tomorrow.
cheers!
