  7. London Bridge This natural arch collapsed some years ago now; this is a colour transparency from a motorcycle tour I did from Adelaide around Tasmania long ago. One of my companions rode over and is pictured. #SensoryArt #bridges #photography #landscape #nature #GreatOceanRoad #gift #EastCoastKin

  12. I enjoyed taking stacks of photos and stopping along the Great Ocean Road. It was good that we did it in a couple of short trips on different days rather than trying to cram it in all on one day. It was also great travelling at a non-peak time. I drove this road in summer years ago and swore that I would never do it again. There is so much traffic in summer which makes for stressful driving, particularly as you inevitably encounter caravans and people who are inexperienced driving in Australia and who are taking in the scenery instead of concentrating on the road.

    I was rather surprised at the condition of the road given it is an international attraction and we are coming into peak tourist season. It has pot holes and other bits which are sure to become pot holes with the increased traffic of summer. Add to this the presence of wallabies and this road becomes a tricky place to drive. There were a lot of signs all along the way telling drivers that in Australia we drive on the left. Honestly, I think it would be best for international tourists to take a bus tour of the road. We saw many international tourists who were doing exactly that today.

    I also think that it is disappointing that there is no dedicated cycle path. Surely this should be a priority as it would make a wonderful cycling trip. We saw some cyclists. There is no verge, so they have to cycle in the road with cars. It just takes one driver who is distracted by the scenery to create an awful accident.

  22. The Twelve (or so) Apostles are made of limestone which is a soft rock that is prone to significant erosion over time. The coastline is constantly changing. We found this rock with some holes, inside which some plants had taken hold. These holes have possibly been created by rain.

  27. The small blue bird in the tree in this photo is a [edit] Superb Fairy Wren. It is hard to photograph because it jumps around very quickly.

    In the low, thick bush next to the path were a lot of birds. We only saw a couple, but we could hear beautiful chirping and twittering all along the walk.

    [Re edit: thank you to @ecoscore for telling me I had identified the bird incorrectly!]
