Well, better late than never; myself, Alice, Jennifer, and Elison travelled down the Great Ocean Road last week.
Great road to drive fast on, but during the bends and turns, it can be fun making strong turns with your car, albiet dangerous. I drove properly of course because I did have passengers after all.
Beautiful scenary as people say, but as one friend commented, the driver does miss out on half of it as you'd need to concentrate on the road more.
In a quick nutshell, we left Wednesday morning, stayed at Apollo Bay, had a quick swim that Wednesday, visited Otway Fly and 12 Apostles on Thursday, and visited Lornes Erskine Waterfall on Friday, before returning home that afternoon.

Well, today's the day I leave for the Great Ocean Road. Leaving Wednesday morning, returning Friday late afternoon.
We don't have a lot planned but simply going to Apollo Bay, 12 Apostles, Otway Fly, and the general scenic drive; whatever happens, happens.
On Saturday, I will also be heading up for the Wyndham Stake youth raft race up in Anglesea; near the Great Ocean. I think we can win, our youth have done well in their rowing techniques.
So this is going to be a long week with lots of driving and scenary, but also going to be a lot of fun. |

Friday 29th January I went to James' 21st birthday. It wasn't a dance and jump around like Brianna's, or drink and shout like you see at pubs and bars, but it was more of a dinner.
Later on in the party though people started to get up and dance a bit, after we started doing it first, and when the lights were finally turned off.
Other than that, I an legally drive again tomorrow and will be going on a road trip February 17th till 19th through the Great Ocean Road.
The funny thing is on the 20th, we have a youth raft race in Anglesea, so I'll be going back up there and round abouts again.

Well, I had lost my car license for 6 months from speeding and running red lights, no intentionally of course - though there were a few instances of such, I now am able to legally drive again.
It's been a grueling 6 months where I had to rely on others for transportation. Although transportation was generally available, finding, asking, and organising it with them, is much more hassling that it is me being the driver and just knowing where to go and to drive who.
So my advice to you? Slam your brakes on the yellow lights; those red light cameras are dodgy.
Though, it isn't all happy galore, this also means car registrations, car insurance, fuel, and more errands to do. Oh well, such is life. |

Yesterday we went down to Torquay to play at the beach as a YSA event for Australia Day.
We weren't at the surf coast, probably because we'd have more room on the side beach, but we still enjoyed ourselves even with lack of waves.
And of course, me not bothered to wear sunscreen, my face is a little sunburnt, and my upper back and shoulders are sunburnt, once again.
Nonetheless, bit of BBQ, some sports, splashing around, and mucking around, it was a nice and relaxing day, even with strong winds giving us a little chill.
