Eli arrived on Tuesday afternoon and was miraculously awake, so we went out for drinks and snacks. I had been invited to speak at the evening board meeting of the Australian Centre for Grief and Bereavement (the organization sponsoring me here) so we parted ways for a few hours. Lily and Eli hung out and we met up later for dinner.

Before heading out the following day we stopped at the Kit Kat Store, a Mecca for chocolate lovers, where Lily and Eli created a custom confection.

 

Mission complete, we hit the Great Ocean Road.

A late afternoon lunch stop

These guys are everywhere. We liked them, but they are not popular with the locals.

Post breakfast walk on the beach, then on to the Twelve Apostles, a formation  of rock slabs carved by the waves.
