2/14/02 The Great Ocean Road (Kelly)

Just to let everyone know...I do know how to pick decent movies...the crap ones just seemed like the ones to get because none of us had seen them vs the good ones where at least 1 or 2 of us had.
Happy Valentines Day!! The 4 of us packed a cooler this morning and set off down The Great Ocean Road. We stopped at Apollo Bay for a couple of hours to play on the beach...the water was freezing and yes all "personal" parts on all of our bodies were a little deformed, if you know what I mean! On our way to Port Arthur we stopped again in a small town called Lorne...another really beautiful waterfall. We drove down to Port Arthur (this is actually where our YHA was) and stopped at Gibson's Stepp, The 12 Apostles, The Blow Hole, and Thunder Cave...got to wait for the pictures. But these are land formations off the coast that have been eroded away by the crashing waves over million of years. The rock is limestone which makes it very vulnerable to erosion making grand statue things. All of the locations have a history of some major ship wrecks do to the current and the huge crashing waves.
