The spectacular clifftop scenery continued as we made our way down the Eyre Peninsular with a few days to explore the coast and dunes at Coffin Bay a highlight. There are many tracks and locations missed due to challenging weather….still! We then travelled onto Adelaide for a 4 night stay and to complete the first loop of the trip!. We left Adelaide nearly 6 months ago now on this amazing adventure. After catchup with family, a movie night and a bit of shopping in the city centre while Priscilla got serviced, we then moved onto the beachside town of Robe for a few nights. More coast this time with a bit of walking and a few more waves on a travel day to Beachport. Lovely spot and nice and quiet.
We then headed to Victoria, crossing the border and spending a few nights in Port Fairy. Had a morning exploring Griffiths Island and the town centre before the rains returned for a dousing.
Yesterday we finally reached the Great Ocean Road and have visited a number of spots on the tourist trail including the 12 Apostles, very iconic landmark. Some amazing coastal scenery, but a bit overrun with tourists so not always ideal for ease of photographing (unless you have a selfie stick)..Some amazing stormy skies today, including a fabulous sunset sky from our accommodation as well.
With only a few weeks remaining of this big adventure, thoughts are now turning to the next chapter. Back in Sydney, finding work, place to live and then recommencing the savings so that the second part of the lap around the country can be completed. But before that, I get to spend my birthday travelling the Great Ocean Road and we have a couple more stops to enjoy that I will feature soon ☺
