Great Ocean Road

I have lots of pictures to share, I just haven't had time to write about it. I've been to Great Ocean Road (actually the weekend before last weekend) and Philip Island, plus I discovered Melbourne during the night - it's really beautiful during the night, there are so many things to see on the street.

I'm "dedicating" a post to each subject :)

Great Ocean Road - I went with 4 other people from my class, it was really fun !
We went on a guided tour arranged by STA Travel (namely Mr. Trey or was it Craig?, LOL) - travel agency for students that has a branch on campus. There were other people on the tour as well, but as always the Danes like to stick together. Despite the horrible tour guide, I had a good trip, but man he was a bore ! He kept going on and on about some stupid numbers, like this happened in 19... this happened in 19..., he made us go through a boring lecture about some dumb trees and he refused to drop us off at the station. - Total jerk.

Anyways, we were driving in the bus, and I admittedly half-slept whenever we were in the bus, I strained my neck and didn't see much of the view while being in the bus, but I did see the 12 apostles, which is what left the deepest impression on me + the helicopter ride. The 12 apostles are natural limestone stacks and there are only 8 left, because the rest have collapsed.
I took the helicopter ride which cost me $71 dollars for 5 mins - total rip off, but I did enjoy it very much.

More apostles - aren't they cool? Half the Danish crew - my lovely classmates
