Finally get the news that Steve has been accepted for an electrical position in a mine near Geraldton in WA. Our good friends live in a small town there and recommended Steve for the job. Our plans therefore have changed....Tasmania is on hold and we are racing across the miles to get to Geraldton for his medical on Monday 16th.
We weren't going to miss the great ocean road however. So we belt down past Melbourne and stay overnight in Lorne, in a magnificent historic building with exquisite gardens. Lorne is a sweet place at the beginning of the road and we arrive as the mist moves in from the ocean. A good beach walk leads me to the biggest lump of seaweed I have ever seen....it is thick like leather and rubbery to touch.
We share our fish and chips with a thousand greedy, noisy seagulls and 2 very friendly, polite cockatoos.
We are blown away by the extent some people go to with their homes to get the best views of the ocean....obviously not gardeners!
