It has been a long time since R and I went on a road trip with friends. The last time was more then 10 years ago when we were still studying in Melbourne. We rented a car and went along the Great Ocean Road with our friends when term was out. It was fun driving along the windy coastal road taking in the majestic scenery of the ocean and breathing in the fresh ocean breeze.
I love being able to stop as and when we wanted for a break or to take photographs. It was really fun being with friends and enjoying ourselves eating freshly caught seafood at a seaside cafe while listening to the sound of waves hitting the shoreline.
It was also fun checking into motels along the way to stay and bunking in with a group of Uni friends. Those were the carefree days which we had.
Watching the sun go down on the 12 apostles is simply breathtaking. It is very romantic and pictures taken during that “golden hour” are really stunning.
I will have to wait another five to ten years when all the kids are grown up to be able to take them to visit the Great Ocean Road.
When was your last Road Trip?

That’s a breathtaking view! Seems like there’s a bit of a road trip theme today! But it’s great, I love them!
