Great Ocean Road and the Grampians

This week on the last minute spur I decided to go down to the Great Ocean Road in Melbourne. I wanted to enjoy the scenery instead of worrying about driving off the cliff so I decided to take a a tour. The road was winding and the tour guide was long winded, but the scenery was amazing.
The only spot with the official sign on it
The Twelve Apostles, or rather the Eight Apostles
The London Bridge with the funny embarrassing story of the cheating couple stranded on the far side of the bridge and their infidelity was broadcasted on national TV.

The other part of the trip included a tour to the Grampians which is 5 sandstone mountain national park in Southern part of Victoria. There is an Aboriginal center with wild kangaroos and emus around the park. Now all I need is to see koalas in the wild!

Finally, meeting up with Scotty, Meg and Baby G is the best part of the weekend. They graciously accommodated me on the last minute visit and we had a great time hanging out.
