We rode to Lorne, one of the first main towns on the great ocean road and stopped for a cup of tea in Arab. A destination cafe for many bikers and where we would meet up with our parents who were on a day trip. We got a photo of the owner of the cafe for our blog!
We rode on to Wye River where we are to spend our first night. Jeremy put up his wee tent with help from Brian, my mum's partner, and then we all went to the pub for a final meal before my mum and Brian head back to Ireland.
The campsite is full of birds, I'm in heaven! I've been drawing and taking photos. I've also decided to keep a running tally of all the bird I see on the trip but I'll not bore you with that yet.
Instead here are a few photos.
You can see more of my sketches from this trip on my art blog www.bridgetfarmer.blogspot.com

Wow! Camping as well? Wow! One thing I insist on when touring is we stay at a hotel - we often do about 200-300 miles a day and like to crash out after a decent meal - so hat's off to you! Where to next?
Am enjoying this.
Hi mrsnesbit! Yes, in the tent it is for us! We're on a tight budget. Also because it is my first time doing this we're keeping distances not too far, maybe 2 or 3 hours max. Today we're heading for warrnambool, where actually the tent stays packed since we're staying with jetemy's great aunt and uncle.
