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, 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.
