Through to Eastern Victoria

These photos were taken during the May school holidays on a trip from Sydney to Adelaide along the Murray River and thence back along the Victorian coast through Melbourne and on to Canberra. While the location of the photographs was recorded at the time (I did it!), that documentation has been lost. Thus, some of the locations are unknown, and possibly were even at the time, given some of the photos. Google Images helped to locate some locations.

View over gentle hills with trees and grass to the ocean beyond

Along the Great Ocean Road, a mere 240km from Melbourne, looking over gentle farming country to Bass Strait.

Looking under pine tree across grass to beach and out the bay to Bass Strait

Believed to be Apollo Bay; May is not a good time to be swimming in these southern waters.

Across picnic area, beach, bay towards rounded green hills

Apollo Bay. We probably stopped there for lunch, and so the photos.

Camp ground below steep cliffs as road makes right turn

Somewhere along the road - this rather "rustic" camp ground was something of a surprise to find.

Pedestrian suspension bridge across river mouth

Lorne on the Great Ocean Road.

View across field to gardens with trees with autumn colours

Probably somewhere in the Dandenongs, east of Melbourne. The autumn colours are definitely showing up, although the back lighting makes them a bit difficult to appreciate.

House with autumn trees across to distant blue hills

Also probably in the Dandenongs, showing autumn colours and also the territorial view across the valley to the distant hills.

Waterway with boat shed and a couple of boats tied up

Lakes Entrance in eastern Victoria.

Dirt parking lot, boat ramp, and water off to the horizon

Perhaps Lakes Entrance too.
