Bridget - first night

Today was much nicer weather and we were much more relaxed about leaving, so with Norman packed to full capacity we pulled out of the driveway and set off. Immediately I felt the cold wind on my thighs but decided to enjoy it since when we really get on the road and find ourselves in hot desert temperatures I'd miss this cold Victorian sting!

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.
