Day 87 - The Great Ocean Road - Torquay
This bit of the road was right along the coast, so we had lovely views of the sea.
We stopped of in Lorne where Luke grabbed his board and hit the waves ( Luke is complaining that this makes him sound like a tool and he wants me to re-write it to " Luke went surfing") whereas I steared clear of the freezing water and chose to top up my tan and keep on reading " The thousand splendid suns" which was a really good read if anyone is wondering.
After Luke's successful surf we went on to Bell's Beach, which is supposed to be one the most famous surf beaches in the world and is also where Patrick Swayze catches his last wave in "Point Break". We arrived and the sea was FLAT! We actually saw some people taking pictures of the sign saying "Bells Beach" to say they were there.
Then we went on to Torquay. By this point we didn't really care much about this place or the Great Ocean Road anymore. Instead we were getting very excited to arrive in Melbourne the next day which is something we'd been looking forward to for ages :)
