Alright! Melbourne +area was a blast. We took off from perth on the 31st at night. No sleep on the flight over. We arrived at 5:30 am and had to wait around unil 9:30 when we could go pick up our Wicked camper van that we rented. The van has a Rolling Stones theme and the huge logo on the side of it. It was pretty pimp haha. We met Richelle that day at about 12. She's my second cousin, but we've never met before. She was amazing letting us stay there the whole week (when we weren't touring the coast in our van). Spent the first night just chilling out and getting to knwo Richelle and all the good places to go in Melbourne.
Day#2: we head off to The Great Ocean Road. It was a beautiful drive even with the blistering winds that were blowing down trees all over the highway and shaking our van left and right. Then the rain. A good 3 days straight of it.... hahaha... and they say this area's in a drought. Well it is. On our way back from Bells Beach we had to stop as there was an entire tree in our way. Managed to get it moved, with the help of 3 more people. Make it to Lorne and spend the night in a camper area. A very cold night! haha..
Day3: We head off to do a waterall walk that's in the area. Beautiful but has nothing on the waterfalls in Thailand. See some really great scenery, the biggest waves I've ever seen, and went to the most famous part of the drive where all the rock formations are uniquely beautiful. With all the stop on the way, a short tip took all of 2 days.
Day 4 : drive back to melbourne in time to go see an Aussie Rules Footy game. I can definetly see the appeal of these. It's a great game.
