This past weekend, some friends and I took a road trip along the Great Ocean Road. This is a road that extends from Sydney, through Melbourne, and then across the southern coast of Australia. And we did the whole thing! No just kidding, the drive from Sydney to Melbourne alone takes 10 hours (Australia is huge!), but we did see some very pretty sites along the southern coast part we did past Melbourne.
The Great Ocean Road is exactly what is sounds like- it is a long road that follows the coastline so you can see the ocean most of the time you are on the road (gorgeous!), and the Ocean you see on the Road is Great. We started out at Point Lonsdale where Georgia, our lovely amazing tour guide/friend, lives with her family. We drove through Apollo Bay, and saw some beautiful beaches along the way! The water was so blue and we drove along pretty cliffs that overlooked those amazing waters. It is hard to really capture how pretty it is on camera, so they photos do not do justice to the Great Ocean Road, but I did my best.
