The Great Ocean Road

The day we bought our beautiful home on wheels was the day we put in our one week notice with our landlord, which didn't leave us much time for planning our next move, but now it seems like everything is falling into place.  Well not exactly falling, more like an unfortunate chain reaction of events starting with the innocent action of slipping on a banana peel and finishing with an entire city block leveled. But with a little hard work and a lot of debating we have decided to take an adventure on The Great Ocean Road.  We have been told by many that it contains some of the most beautiful coast line in all of Australia and this time of year is prime beach season.  So we packed all of our belongings into our trusty Landcruiser and hit the open road.  It's a good thing I spent most of my formative years driving a beat up conversion van, as our new rig does not have the tightest handling or the most power to make it up the hilly victorian roads.  If you want to get somewhere in the Landcruiser, you best plan ahead.  Traveling experiences aside, the vehicle makes a great home.  The bed in the back is pretty comfy and the curtains Justina made make for great privacy.  I guess it goes to show that home is what you make it, and ours just happens to have 4wd.
