Australia-Great Ocean Road

 Day trip to Great Ocean Road.  The biggest national monument in the world. built by soldiers returning from the war to honor their fallen comrades.  pretty cool actually.

Here is the beginning.

yup, just a bunch of people standing around waiting to take a picture

Eventually you make it to the good part.  The 12 apostles.  Stones in the water.  Even though we only counted 8.

 

At first it was cloudy, but then the sun came out and it was a lot better.

 It was also cold and windy.  Either that or Kaori didn't want to listen to me anymore.

 Very beautiful coast.  And the road follows right along that coast, every single twist and turn.  Car sick much?

 also, because I have a tiny head she always leaned back to make our heads look similar size.




Then we went to a Koala park.  Or a park that had a couple of Koalas in its trees.

Can you see it?

And these colorful birds.

Also this old man with his over-sized clothes.

Then we came to a gorge

 Gorgeous isn't it?

the back end of the gorge with limestone stalactites.

A picture I like at the end of the day at a marina.

Great Ocean Road was pretty good.  I wish I had had a coat though.  Brrr!
