The last of the ocean road

From Otway we headed on to the east this morning to cover the last of the Ocean Road. We headed through Apollo Bay and then stopped for a short walk up to Carisbrook Falls. As with everywhere else, the volume

Observing the Otways

With another day at the campsite on Cape Otway, we decided to do a tour of the Cape. The advice from the lady at the campsite was to start with Mait’s Rest. Immediately she said I made stereotypical assumptions about

To the altar of the ocean road

This morning we left Camperdown and headed south back towards Port Campbell. Driving along I had the song ‘Camptown Races’ as an earworm – not quite the Camperdown Races, but Camperdown did have a racecourse and if you sing it

An uplifting day ….

The campsite we are staying at is called Lakes and Craters Caravan Park and the clue is in the title …. The area has a lot of lakes and craters … telling us a lot about its volcanic origins. Camperdown

On a road on the ocean and it’s great …

We headed off early today – an alarm at 7am (well early for us on holiday!) and on the road around 7.30am. We headed first across to Port Fairy for a quick look round. We knew that it would be

Walking and walking and walking …..

Late yesterday we had an epiphany, but it was not of the good kind …. We realised that Australians celebrate Labour Day, but … they don’t all celebrate it on the same day. In fact, the Victorians seem to like

Sinkholes, volcanoes and gannets

A mix of things today. The day started with a glimpse of weird Victoriana. We drove a short way to the east of Mount Gambier to the Umpherston sinkhole. This is, as the name suggests, a limestone sinkhole. The cave

Meandering to Mount Gambier

This morning we escaped the campsite before 10am ensuring we weren’t sanctioned for being lazy …. We left Robe and headed half an hour down the road to a town called Beachport. This does pretty much what is says on

Rambling to Robe

Our first full day in the campervan today and we overslept! Check-out times on campsites are apparently 10am and can in some places be rigidly enforced. Luckily at Mount Barker it wasn’t as we didn’t leave until about 10.45! From

Meandering to Mount Barker

Today the campervan beckoned … We have booked a campervan so that we can head across to Melbourne. The only issue was that the campervan pick was about an hour’s walk away. So we could have just got a taxi,
