John's Around the World Adventure 2005/2006
Australia: Great Ocean Road
Our furthest venture south took us to the famed Great Ocean Road in Southern Australia. Here, we were fortunate enough to catch a glimpse of a wild Koala ( despite running away as the car approached!). We also visited numerous rock formations including the impressive 12 Apostles. Obviosly, given the title 'Great Ocean Road' and seeing as though we only had a day to cover the main highlights, both Sol and I did a considerable amount of driving in our 'best hound' to date. The wonderful scenery most certainly helped us through our long day though!

Unfortunately the koala you see modelling for us here was spotted at the Australia Zoo! Crikey!
Waterfalls such as this beauty were common sights along much of the Great Ocean Road trail.
We ended our day exploring the Great Ocean Road with good old English fish n chips. What a perfect way to end a pretty awesome day!
