DAY EIGHT
Activity on our first day back in Melbourne from Tassie: Great Ocean Road Tour!!! We booked a one-day reverse tour & meeting time was at 7.15am! Tour was expected to end at 9plus in the night, so yes another long day ahead!
Because it was a reverse tour, we travelled inland for the front parts of the trip, with several pit stops along the way. R really enjoyed the history lessons from our tour guide, while I mostly zoned out/dozed off here and there.
This is where we started our real trip along GOR - The London Bridge!
Then our midpoint stop was at Port Campbell town, where we had our sandwich lunch~
Next stop at Loch Ard Gorge! There were 3 walks in total and we went to all! First up, the beach!
Tom & Eva lookout!
& finally the Razorback.
The views were truly gorgeous. Just imaging how the waves shaped all these magnificent landscapes.
& then the much famed twelve apostles!! How charming.
Next stop was Mait's Rest rainforest walk for a different type of view! Was super cooling in the rainforest. :)
keke & the tour guide made time for an ice cream stop along the way. We tried a chocolate and chestnut flavoured ice cream, I loved the chestnut one!!
Soon skies were darkening and we drove on full speed back towards the city, hoping to get more stopovers along the way. Caught this view at a random stopover along the roads!
Quickly proceeded towards Kennett River area to visit some koalas! Lucky us, we got to see a wild koala up close having its meal!
And our final stop before skies darkened was at Teddy's Lookout, I really liked the view from this lookout :D
Then it was another 1 hour + drive back to Torquay for our pizza dinner! Then finally reached back Melbourne at about 9.30pm.
Very tiring but I'm glad we managed to see a lot along the way and enjoyed ourselves :) A day well spent indeed!
