The Memorial Archway, between Airey's Inlet and Lorne has been buit/rebuilt 3 times. Built in the early 1900's, rebuilt in 1939 and again in 1983 after Ash Wednesday fires. We didn't realise that so much of the Great Ocean Road district was affected by this event, but it is mentioned quite frequently in signage information etc
It was interesting to see Lorne, 25 years after Jon & I honeymooned there. I don't know that a lot has changed, and maybe they could do a bit of updating. Lorne is one of those places that have all the attractions for a weekend, or daytrip out of Melbourne. And as we are realizing, there are so many beautiful coastal areas that the Melbournites have to choose from! All set up for people to come and spend their money!
These were a real attraction to the kids!
The question is: Is he going forwards, or backwards? |
Scenically, Lorne has it all. Beautifil beaches and coastline and the natural forest comes to the coast. So there is great access to walking trails, creeks, waterfalls etc. All very picturesque.

A pretty town, but I'm not sure that I'd like to have to drive on the steep streets!
Knowing Jed, I'd say it was a forwards flip! The girls loved seeing your pictures of the dinosaurs abd izzy said that she was going to see them one day.
