lovely Lorne




A bunch of six sweet peeps ventured to the seaside town of Lorne for the weekend. Two of the bunch had been furiously training for the last 6 months to compete in their first ultra marathon. History in the making. The rest of us just tagged along for the fun of it and had the chance to explore the Great Ocean Road.

I hadn't counted on being lucky enough to spot so much wildlife. After spending the better half of Saturday morning feeding about 15 Cockatoos with some salvaged crackers from the night before, we realized this act was not remotely encouraged by the owners of the house. Oops. Worth every bit of rebellion I say!



We spent Saturday afternoon road tripping along the Great Ocean Road, passing through Apollo Bay and ending up at the 12 Apostles. Along the way we were under strict instruction to spot Koala's among the tree tops - which we did! We also saw a small fox dash out on the road!








After retiring from exploration we refueled in a daggy tea room before beginning the drive back to Lorne for a cozy night in.

Sunday finally came around, the hard work paid off and the boys had a triumphant finish! What an experience watching them cross the finish line!

I cannot wait for more Great Ocean Road adventures.
