Temp: Distance: Walk: Start time: After breakfast we went for a walk into the thriving metropolis of Port Campbell. Not a lot to see so took a photo of the port and moved right along. We were ready to leave before we went for a walk, so simply turned the fridge from gas to 12V, locked up the van and off we went. First stop was only 5km up/down the road to the first of the viewing platforms to check out various bits, such as Island Walkway, Razorback, Loch Ard Gorge and Shipwreck Walk. We were going to walk to see the Blowhole and Mutton Bird Island, however, Gunther found he had a problem with the lights on his truck - they stayed on even when they were turned off. It didn't take long for him to find the fault - 4 wires leading to the plug had rubbed up against a sharp bit on the inside of the A-frame and worn through the plastic coating and wee shorting!! Although not an auto-electrician, lucky Gunther is an electrician and has all the gear to fix things like this. About 45 mins later we were on the road again after having mornos while Gunther fixed his wires. Next stop was at the Twelve Apostles. We had seen them in Jan 14 on our way to Adelaide to watch the TDU, but it was a cold, windy and wet day so we didn't stay for long. This time we did both walks - out to the Apostles and to Gibson Steps. We just had to have an ice-cream as well, which fueled us for the 2.2km return trip to the Gibson Steps! Lunch was had at Lavers Hill; Greg had a hime made salad, while Wendy opted for a chicken, tomato, cheese, etc toasted focaccia which was not too bad; better than the salad sandwich and wraps them G&Y had. We ventured on to Cape Otway; the road into it was a shocker. G&Y wanted to see it and the lightstation which is apparently the oldest surviving and most important lighthouse in mainland Australia. When we eventually got there, we had to double park behind ignorant motorists who had parked in the long vehicle bays. We then found out it was about $20 each to walk out to the lightstation and have a tour. We figured we had already seen enough lighthouses and would probably see plenty more that we did not need to pay to see this one. We also figured that they should be putting some of that money back into infrastructure such as roads and expanding their parking facilities. Apollo Bay was our final destination for the day. Wendy decided to ring ahead to the Apollo Bay Recreation Reserve and Camping Ground as it was fairly busy and we did not want to miss out on a site. $60 for an uneven, gravel site, with really old amenities, toilet doors of which do not even have latches!! These parks along the GOR are milking it, and we will definitely not be staying here again. Wendy chose this one after reviewing WikiCamps. After setting up and an afternoon cuppa fro Greg, we went for a walk along the beach which was nothing extraordinary, and very windy. Dinner was prepared (pork chop and salad, and salmon and left over roast veggies) and was eaten with G&Y in their van. There was a very noisy collection of families with quite young children and there was a lot of noise up until 9:15pm when they finally put the kids to bed. We hope the parents go to bed soon as well.
