Great Ocean [Road] Rain


People rhapsodise about the Great Ocean Road. It's one of Australia's Must-Sees. But not necessarily when seen through a veil of rain ....

Yes, sadly the weekend I spent with Georgie and Stu and Sunday in Anglesea was the weekend when Victoria decided to remind me of seaside holidays spent in Donegal. Watching the rain. Rushing outside when there was a break in the rain - only for it to start raining again.

Deciding the rain had to stop sometime, we went for a drive and I took photos. Of the Hawaiian dancer in the rain.


And the rain out of the passenger window.


Eventually we did the only sensible thing and sought refuge indoors. We went to Wye River General Store - an upgraded local shop with a very nice cafe (though on the pricy side) and a fire.



(Georgie checking out the offerings.)

I chose a lemon tart. I chose wisely. It was was delectable.


Sunny recommends the chocolate milkshake.



Coffee drunk, cakes eaten, we went back outside to watch the rain some more.
