The cafe is not too far from Debbie's house and the pulled pigs jowl and egg roll I had:
with coffee:
was the perfect start to our holiday:
The journey to Apollo Bay from Melbourne is around a three hour drive and takes in a stretch of the Great Ocean Road which is breathtaking:
although my picture really doesn't do it any justice.
We stopped off in Lorne (which is about half way to Apollo Bay) to have lunch but quickly decided that as none of us were really hungry we'd just go and stretch our legs instead and let Lily play in the park for a while before continuing our journey.
Whilst in Lorne we came across a community of wild cockatoo living near the beach and these were amazing to watch as they were so tame and loved interacting with the visitors (and chasing the seagulls):
We then headed on to Apollo Bay following the Great Ocean Road for the remainder of our trip.
We arrived at around 14:50 got our keys form the Agent and then drove to the apartment which is only one street back from the beach and in a great location.
We got unpacked and had a quick "sanga" before heading out to explore the town (with Lily on her scooter).
Lily found another park she liked and she and I played there for about an hour before heading to meet Laura and Debbie who had gone to the pub.
We had some wine and an S&M beer:
The Pub also had a restaurant and we decided to stay for dinner, which for me was the seafood basket (which I couldn't finish):
and sticky toffee pudding (which we all shared):
After dinner we headed back to the apartment and called it a night.
