From Phllip Island we went to Wilson's Promintory on an absolutely beautiful day. Unfortunately, the weather took a turn and our next couple of days were blustery to say the least. Happily, our farm-stay cottage had a wood fireplace and plenty of serenity...ahhh...the serenity. So, we had to forgo the scenery for the fireplace, books, card games and movies. It could have been a lot worse.
We had a big day driving from there, clear across Melbourne to Apollo Bay on the Great Ocean Road. Our six days there and in Port Campbell, further west, were filled with great scenery and wildlife. I'm breaking it into two blogs, just because there are so many great koala pics.
We've been in Australia for 9 months, each day of which I've been hoping to see a wild koala. Well, my hopes were fulfillied with an unofficial count of 64 in a couple of days. I was so excited to see the first one - way up in a tree - that my feet were pounding. Well, as you'll see by the pics, we did a lot better than way up in a tree.
Hope you enjoy.
