Victoria in the Sunshine.

Tuesday we continued along the Great Ocean Road, a visit to the lighthouse at Airies Inlet, then via Lorne, Angelsea to Torquay. At Torquay we visited the giant tiled sundial on the backbeach to show Jim hen went to visit Claire & Lou where we had lunch. Mid-afternoon we moved on to Geelong and booke into a cabin at the Batesford Top Tourist Holiday Park. This park is almost 100 percent pre-fab cabins, jammed together with no open grasse spaces. It appears that Top Tourist are concentrating on cabin accomodation exclusively with little or no provision for open spaces, playgrounds etc. We drove to Ocean Grove where we had dinner.
Wednesday and we drove to Melbourne where Gail visited Pop while I took Chris & Jim on a short drive to Edwards Lake. Then onto the Hume freeway heading north, we diverted to the old Hume highway to visit Benalla and Glenrowan where we spent n hour or so visiting some of the Ned Kelly historic sites. Today is Gail's birthday so we have planned to stop at the Beechworth bakery for a special afternoon tea before stopping at Donna and Pauls new home in Beechworth. Glenice is currently visiting Donna, we all had a lovely birthday dinner and cake there for the birthday girl. Our plan from here is to travel home today (Thur) which is about a 600km drive.
The trip is almost over, one which we have all enjoyed immensley.
A special thanks from Gail to everyone who contacted her on her birthday yesterday.
Over and Out...
Kevin, Gail. Chris & Jim.
