Great Ocean Road

Improved my skills in the kitchen, specially at the moment of peeling, cutting up and fillet food, we decide that already it was the moment to change place.

We needed a car, someone advised us to buying it in an auction, since in Melbourne there are a place where every week sell at auction more than 400 vehicles. We did a visit to see since as it was working and later the following weeks we were twice more until finally we buy a car. The problem was that after the mechanical review, which is obligatory when a automobile is bought and it prove that this one was done a shit and only it was serving to sell it to pieces, thankfully they returned us the money. But we needed a vehicle as soon as possible, since on having bought the car I warn to the company that I was leaving the work in a couple of weeks, and Melbourne can be the best city of the world, but also it is a very expensive city to be without work.

We start searching throughout, until finally we find a car inside the budget that we had, it was not very big, but it would be useful to us.

We had planned to be going to look for work toVictoria’s fields, to gather fruit, but before we wanted to see the Great Ocean Road, so once we had everything in the car, we begin the route to cross the south coast between Melbourne and Port Fairy.

The first places with coast, it were very long beaches of sand bathed by waters with strong currents. As we were advancing the sand of the beaches were mixed with stones or rocky zones, up to we coming to the zone of 12 apostles, where the cliffs were dominating the whole coast.

Arranged by all the way, it had stop areas where park the car and visit calmly the coast and in the zone of cliffs, it had in some occasions installed stairs of wood to be able to go down up to the beach and see from downstairs the sight of the vertical walls of yellow stone.

To half a way, we turn aside towards Cape Otaway, where there are a lighthouse, which we do not manage to see, since the entry it was excessively expensive for what they were offering, or at least it is what seemed to us, at least it is it what we think on having seen the photos that were in the reception desk, in addition already we had seen a similar lighthouse a few kilometres before and according to the map there was other one in a next population. Some of you will think it doesn’t have very much sense that I speak about this, but the people who knows me know that sometimes to explain a thing I beat about the bush and I give more turns that a fan and if I don’t forget what I wanted to explain, everything ends up to making sense. So we did not see the lighthouse, but approximately 3 kilometres after taking the road that was going even there, we saw for the first time koalas, a heap of koalas that were leaving in its way the eucalyptuses without any leaf.

Now only it was necessary to us to see kangaroos, so once done the Great Ocean Road, we continue with the foreseen plans and we were towards Victoria’s fields.
