Great Ocean Road - Port Fairy / Griffith Island

The very last stop at our road trip - Port Fairy

Actually, we didn't see much of Port Fairy but it was a really cute hostel we've been staying at.

We arrived late so all we were able to do was having dinner, taking a shower, plan and book our flight to Cairns and falling asleep. The next day began early. After our breakfast-morning-ritual we drove just around the corner and arrived at GriffithIsland which is a cute little Island. We walked to the lighthouse and took a break for a couple of minutes to enjoy the nice weather and watching the ocean. We reflected our great time along the Great Ocean Road. The trip just started and it was already over. We were really really sad about that.

I wanted to spend more time in all these little cute places because every place has its special vibe and all of them are connected to the ocean. I guess that's why every place felt like home. Well, not home home like Berlinbut like my other home, the ocean.

After that we drove 3 hours back to Melbourne. It was a quite, sometimes funny and sometimes boring drive.

As we arrived in Melbourne everything had changed again. There was no ocean at all, no cute little villages, just a big rushing and hectic city.

And then I realised, though that I'm a big city girl,  my love to nature and the ocean is so much bigger. I feel calm, relaxed and home when I'm close to the sea. This love is a sure thing.

Great Ocean Road - Apollo Bay > Port Campbell

 11/05/2015

Apollo Bay > Cape Otway > Triplet Falls > Port Campbell 

This day has been really nice as well. First we headed to Cape Otway to find some Koalas in wildlife

 and we found some, of course. They are incredible cute. I'm totally obsessed with these animals :D

 After that we went to Triplet Falls, some waterfalls in a rainforest. Pretty nice. 

After that little excursion we continued our journey to our next stop - Port Campbell. During the last

 kilometres we already realised that the fuel tank was almost empty. And the only petrol stations we

 could find has been little creepy ones, so we thought we'll find one in Port Campbell. Well, not

 really. Our GPS told us that the next petrol station is 20km away from our accommodation.

 Meanwhile, the warning lamp was on and we slowely got scared. We arrived in this little village but

 couldn't find a real petrol station. Why? Because it was already closed. Worst feeling ever. And for

 real this little place was soo freaking terrifying. We couldn't do anything but trying to get back to our

 hostel so we drove back through the dark outback. We were so afraif to stop in the middle of nowhere.
But luckily we made it to our hostel without any problems. And the first thing we've done the next day was, of course, refuel.

 Life's an adventure, sometimes a scary one. ;)

ps. can anyone of you find the kangaroo in one of the photos?
