The Long And Winding (Great Ocean) Road

We spent Christmas Eve and Christmas Day on the southern coast of Australia, along the Great Ocean Road. It's like Australia's answer to the Pacific Coast Highway.....or is it the other way around?? Chicken or the egg. Either way, we agreed that it was the most scenic drive that we have ever taken. We stayed in Apollo Bay and spent the two days driving the coast, checking out the small beach towns, and visiting the main tourist attraction - The Twelve Apostles -- kinda like Stonehenge in the ocean. We were also amused by some of the road signs, including 'Kangaroo Crossing' and 'Beware of Koala Bears'. Here are a few shots taken along this magnificent stretch of pavement.
