Great Ocean Road Cliffs

I left Apollo Bay and was soon hugging a cliff as I drove east.
It was quite busy combined with narrow, wet and winding. It was a bit hard to pull off and see because that all happened on the other side of the road and then it was hard to get back on because there were so many blind corners.
Add a few idiot drivers - if you have a new porsche you can pass 3 cars on a blind bend!!
The towns were busy being the weekend. There was a surf carnival on in Lorne.
Cafes looked to be busy in every town.
I stopped at Bells Beach to see if Bodhi was there (Patrick Swayze - Point Break). There was some good surf and quite a few surfers out.
I headed to Quennscliff through Torquay and Barwon Heads - it was all so busy and i wound my way following the ferry signs to get the car ferry to Sorrento. I caught it with only minutes to spare. It was a quick crossing but saved me the drive up and around Melbourne.
Then I did lots of guess work and found my way along highways and hill tops to Sale.
