Lord Of The Flyes....(Flugornas Herre) Not many things can beat the Great Ocean Road... But feels like we managed to do it anyway. After hanging out in Portland and meeting some really cool people at the camping spot it was time to roadtrip for real. Up north towards the Pink Lakes! In +35 degrees heat with no air-conditioning working and all the windows open it really felt like Australia. The landscape turned from hills into deserts, into fields and then again...

The Great Ocean Road.... After just a little less than a week we are sound and alive at the end of the Great Ocean Road. The road usually takes around 3 days to do, but with Anton being a big, strong and constantly hungry man and with Monika taking around 30min for photo sessions at evety point of interest ( and there are A LOT of them), we usually took around 4-5 hours to drive 30km.

Sleepless in Melbourne...well, here we are. After 26 hours of crazy flying, bad airplane meals and crowded seating areas we are finally here. Jetlag is a bit*h and despite our best attempts to fight it we haven\'t been able to sleep in 2 days now. But hey, that\'s life of a backpacker huh?!The arrival to Australia was extremely uneventfull and undramatic. Almost sad, keeping in mind our preparations for full body scans, questions in dark rooms and strip searches....
