Well its now Boxing Day evening and christmas is just about over!! Weve had an amazing couple of days, the picnic in the park we had before christmas was a successful day, brilliant sunshine, we managed to get our tan started finally. Its only taken about a month! After that we went for a wonder in the centre again and found a revolving 360 restaurant in the sky tower which we will be going to at some point before the new year. We went out on xmas eve and had a b...

So the Great Ocean road route from Hamilton to Melbourne was quite an experience, so many places to stop like London Bridge (broken), Bay of Islands, Thunder cave, Blow Hole, Twelve Apostles, and spectacular views of the beaches and bays! Now you would think the great ocean road ran along the ocean right?! Wrong, well partly.
