Victoria, Australia

We started this particular day at the Sancho Lookout, a less visited but equally impressive part of the Great Ocean Road near the town of Peterborough in the state of Victoria, Australia. There was no-one around so we had it all to ourselves.

There are two platforms from where the limestone stacks can be seen in the Bay of Islands near the town of Peterborough in the state of Victoria, Australia. Even though it's called a bay these ones are actually outside the bay itself.

Standing on the beach and seeing the waves bashing against the limestone rocks really shows erosion in progress. Here we witnessed the shaping of the rocks in the Bay of Martyrs near the town of Peterborough in the state of Victoria, Australia.

Definitely not to be missed is The Grotto on the Great Ocean Road near the town of Peterborough in the state of Victoria, Australia. A winding set of stairs leads visitors down to the ocean level offering quite the photogenic spot.

Details of the London Bridge feature along the Great Ocean Road near the town of Peterborough in the state of Victoria, Australia. Until 1990 this massive rock was attached to the mainland but since the connection collapsed it is now officially renamed to London Arch.

We were glad we decided to go into the hardly visible road leading to Sparks Gully. We ended up being all alone there and could really explore this little gem along the Great Ocean Road near the town of Port Campbell in the state of Victoria, Australia.

Bakers Oven is a wonderful feature along the Great Ocean Road near the town of Port Campbell in the state of Victoria, Australia. Not many people seem to go there so it's a great place to get a really good overview of the coastline including Bakers Oven itself.

The wild ocean water is creating a waterfall at Bakers Oven near the town of Port Campbell in the state of Victoria, Australia. Bakers Oven is an awesome feature along the Great Ocean Road.

Magnificent view at Mutton Bird Island near the town of Port Campbell in the state of Victoria, Australia. The small cliff arch is constantly getting bashed by the wild ocean.

Loch Ard Gorge is one of the more known features along the Great Ocean Road near the town of Port Campbell in the state of Victoria, Australia. It used to be possible to go down into the gorge but for some reason that was not allowed this time.

Mutton Bird Island as seen from the Loch Ard Wreck Lookout near the town of Port Campbell in the state of Victoria, Australia. Another awesome part of nature and so hard to leave behind.

By far the most visited feature on the Great Ocean Road are The Twelve Apostles near the town of Port Campbell in the state of Victoria, Australia. Despite the fact that a few of the limestone pillars have almost disappeared it keeps attracting visitors from all over the world. We have visited them both late afternoon and early morning but both times offer magnificent views.

The sheer size of the Twelve Apostles on the Great Ocean Road become clear when one goes down to the beach to see them from there. This can be best done by using the Gibson Steps near the town of Port Campbell in the state of Victoria, Australia. Here is one mirrored in the sand on a sunny afternoon.

The limestone coast as seen from the Razorback Lookout near the town of Port Campbell in the state of Victoria, Australia. One of the many spectacular views along the Great Ocean Road.

One of the more spectacular features along the Great Ocean Road is The Razorback near the town of Port Campbell in the state of Victoria, Australia. Truly amazing what nature can accomplish with a bit of erosion.

Awesome view at the Razorback Lookout near the town of Port Campbell in the state of Victoria, Australia. Erosion caused a huge hole in the cliffs making it look like there's a window in the cliff.

After having spent a full day on the Great Ocean Road and its many sights we decided to go back to the Bay of Islands near the town of Peterborough in the state of Victoria, Australia. The coastline looked fabulous during the golden hour with the sunset providing these warm colours.

By far the busiest tourist attraction on the Great Ocean Road are the Twelve Apostles near the town of Port Campbell in the state of Victoria, Australia. Early morning though, the apostles are a lot less crowded plus with the light coming from the other side they look more appealing we think.

We really liked hanging out under the Flinders Street railway tracks in the city of Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. Flinders Street Station is Australia’s oldest train station, it was completed in 1910. Its 708-metre main platform is the fourth longest railway platform in the world. Today, heritage-listed Flinders Street Station is one of the busiest suburban railway stations in the Southern Hemisphere, with over 1500 trains and 110,000 commuters passing through each day.

We loved these arches behind arches under the Flinders Street railway station in the city of Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. It's really nice to walk around in the downtown area, especially on a sunny day like the one we had.

Normally we hate graffiti on buildings and other constructions, but not in Hosier Lane in the city of Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. Probably because it is so over the top that it became a major tourist attraction which is then a place that one must visit. We especially loved the depiction of the Girl in a porch.
