Dh doesn't start school until tomorrow (Thursday), so we took a few days (Monday and Tuesday) and explored the southern coastline. We took the Great Ocean Road from its start in Tourquay to Port Campbell.

A Koala!!! In real life!We drove up a road suggested by the tourist information people
and saw several koalas in the wild - it was really cool!
Here, it probably was 2 yards from us!

I am so glad you are posting pictures now! I love love love the koala pictures and must show Jason...he loves them! You are making me seriously want to travel there soon. The sunset pictures are simply amazing.
Ohhhhh, how beautiful!!!
What great pictures! Simply breathtaking.
My 5 year old is in awe at the animals. She was asking "Where?" I think she was a little disappointed it wasn't here in the U.S.
