  • @trvlnthru
    This is such an epic road trip! The water, and cliff and rock formations, and forests are all amazing. The historic wharf at Port Fairy looks delightful. Except for the stingray maybe. That was gigantic. Not sure I would have tried vegemite ice cream. The meat pies and lamington looked pretty good though. The sinkhole and wildlife park were cool too. So much to like in this one. Thanks for taking us along!
  • @CarloPavan

    Oceans and glow worms. Just spectacular views, you two! And you went in winter, hence the not-so huge crowds. But awesome!!

    Monster trip. Never knew the great ocean road was a thing, it's like CA Rt. 1. Otway looks like a dream. Love the longer format as well.
