Great Ocean Road pt I

Aradhna, mom and I took a weekend trip to Warrnambool along perhaps Australia's most beloved stretch of macadam: The Great Ocean Road. Built between 1918-32 by returned WWI servicemen, the road does little to obscure the landscape as it winds its way along Victoria's spectacular coastline.
The Great Ocean Road begins in Torquay, birthplace of Victoria's surf culture.

Bells Beach, another renowned stretch of surf.

We passed a handful of villages that are dormant in winter but packed to the gills in summer. Apollo Bay sits roughly at the mid-point of Great Ocean Road.
