Great Ocean Road-Trip

We drove through many charming little surfing towns along the Great Ocean Road. These towns get too crowded to move in the summer, and then turn to ghost towns in the winter. The spring is known for coastal wind and rain, so it was not overly crowded for us. After two nights in Apollo Bay we set out for Warrnambool. Along the way, we saw some of the most spectacular coastal sights we’ve ever seen. The Great Ocean Road winds along the coast, sometimes through forests and farms, and sometimes along ledges that look out on the water. Every so often we would pull off at designated places to admire the amazing scenery. For some portions of the trip it felt like we were constantly getting out of the car and hiking to beaches and lookout points. Blossom offered to carry us when we got tired.
