Day 10 & 11 - Holidays

Day 10 - We continued along The Great Ocean Road. More bush walking around the Loch Ard Gorge. We saw The 12 Apolstles - to see them up close is stunning! We drove along to Cape Otaway - as you drive along there are koalas in the trees everywhere. We stopped to take some pics of koalas when Craig noticed a koala in a bush right next to us. It was a mother koala and her cute little baby kept peeking at us! We stopped at Apollo Bay for some lunch - there are beautiful carved wooden statues all along the beach front. We then went to Split Point to the lighthouse. We set up camp at Geelong.

Day 11 - Went to the Geelong branch of the company we work for and I got to meet Debbie, Baz and Keith - I talk to these guys via teleconference every week - so it was wonderful to put a face to the voice!! We had lunch at the bay, then walked along looking at all the people painted on wooden poles - there were little old ladies, a band, sailor, lots of life guards, a clown, etc - I walked along the boardwalk taking pictures of every one of them! LOL At the pier there is a huge old fashioned carousel - not something I was expecting to see on the beach. Spent a relaxing afternoon floating around the pool at the caravan park.
