26 February 2024 (Post day 1)
We enjoyed a good nights sleep in a
bed and another shower this morning.

Then off to the 12 Apostles to enjoy
their beauty and the power of the Southern Ocean before the crowds arrive. So
different to last night, no voices just the sound of the ocean. Currently there
are 8 apostles, the numbers vary as new ones are formed and old ones collapse. The
footprints on the beach below the lookout are from fairy penguins – there is no
access to this beach to protect their habitat. It was interesting to watch the
changing light on the cliff faces.The bus to Apollo Bay via the Great Ocean
Road picked us up from the Visitor Information Centre. We were able to see farmland and some forest
sections of Otway National Park. We visited George’s for burgers for lunch in
Apollo Bay. Next was the bus to Geelong, a super quick toilet stop and then
onto the train to Southern Cross Station. There we only had to wait less than
10 minutes for our next train. Last, the short walk to our accommodation.
