Australia Day 3

By right this was the 4th day we stayed in Melbourne but I marked Day 1 as the first morning we spent in Melbourne in my post, so the 4th day is Day 3. Today the weather did not look very good. The sky was grey and it drizzled a little when we were getting out from the house. We drove rental today too. Everyone had heavy breakfast again, thanks to my sister who woke up early to cook for us. Kevin and my sister prepared burgers and sandwiches the night before to bring out as lunch today.

Our plan was to drive along Great Ocean Road today. We stopped at this beach area which I forgot what's the name. There so many surfers on the day despite the bad weather. It was so cold that I don't understand how could they get into the water.

After a long drive we arrived at the starting point of the Great Ocean Road. Great Ocean Road was build by the three thousand Australian returned servicemen from First World War. These people survived the war and built this long road along bass strait.

While driving along the road, we past through a forest of eucalypts trees. This is the tree that koalas love to hang to. We saw many people stopped their car and went down so we knew that there must be a lot koalas there. We took photo with the one nearest to the road.

After some scenic road drive we arrived to this magnificent place..

The twelve apostles!!!! It was really beautiful.

It is winter now in Australia so the day gets dark really quick. Sun sets at 5.15pm. We just managed to get here by time to check out the place last minute before the whole place became dark. I wish we can spend more time at this place because it was really very beautiful. I love it.
