We woke to a brilliant sunrise over Apollo Bay with a heavily overcast sky and set off along the GOR.
This is really a stunning drive. We stopped at every lookout and each time the view was magnificent - the above photos are some of the twelve apostles which can be viewed from various vantage points near the 12 Apostles Centre. Victoria Parks have constructed a tunnel under the road and then a series of boardwalks to various lookouts. Magnificent!
And more magnificent coastal scenery. Here we met a couple from Dresden (in the old East Germany) out here to visit their daughter who lives in Melbourne. They could not believe how beautiful Australia is - they have four weeks to see the country and they were going to really pack it in - everyone in Germany mentions Ayers Rock as a 'must see'. This is a dream come true for them as they thought they would never be permitted to leave East Germany - thank heavens that wall came down!
And then the Grotto above.
We then set off for Warrnambool where we are booked for one night - happy hour was once again very enjoyable.
