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.

Driving to Apollo Bay was not an easy task. Not only was it a long drive, but as mentioned, there were a lot of turns, and a lot of sharp ones also where I had to slow down to turn safely, especially with on coming cars.

Also, there were a lot of drivers who liked speeding down the Great Ocean Road so there were numerous quick stops on the side to let them through before continuing; it's basically a one lane roaad.

Once we arrived at the apartment we rented in Apollo Bay, we unloaded, got ourselves organised, and went for a quick dip at the beach. It turned out the water was too cold for any of them to swim, so I ended up swimming alone for a bit.

This first day was very relaxed and simple, we went to eat, and went home to rest.
