Into the sunset

First stop out of Melbourne

Terrible weather, and no surf

Trying to escape the incoming Autumn along the Great Ocean Road.

Home for tonight

The 12 Apostles, a few short on numbers now

Sandstone cliffs provide excellent locations for villain hide-outs

And interesting stalactites

Not a bad way to see the country

Old buildings are always a good background for old Land Rover

Series 1 row at Melrose, South Australian National Land Rover Show

The post Melrose Flinders trip, thanks again for talking me into joining

Looking ahead to the Flinders Ranges

Happy Land Rover

Resting in the shade before climbing to the top

Looking back down the valley

Still plenty of water two weeks after heavy rain

No mate, you go first

Some of the most beautiful area I have ever visited

Six days and 800 kilometers of dirt roads

The Leyland brothers 107.  One of two Land Rovers they drove cross country from Steep point (furthest west) to Cape Byron (furthest east) in 1966

Fixing the exhaust properly this time

Cactus Beach, famous for sharks and surfing

Across the Nullarbor

Everything is bigger out west

This will be a fun section at 80kph (50mph for Americans)

After two hours of this, the first corner was actually exciting
