On Thursday last week Kiki and I decided that we should take a trip to somewhere and Melbourne is where we chose! We booked our flights and left this Thursday. We were there until Tuesday and had so much fun. We stayed with Kiki’s family in a small town outside of Melbourne called Tourquay. This is where the brands Quicksilver and Rip Curl were started. We also went to Geelong where Billabong was started. We spent 3 days in the City of Melbourne, wandering around and seeing our friend Iris who is going to school out there at La Trobe University. The rest of the days we hung out in Tourquay. We got to do a drive along Great Ocean Road thanks to Kiki’s family who took us the whole way. Kiki and I thought the whole thing would take a few hours, after returning 9 hours later we were pretty wiped out. We stopped along the way to see the Twelve Apostles and see some awesome view points along the way and to stop in a cute town to look around and get lunch.

While we were in Tourquay we also got to go on a road which is infamous for having lots of Koalas in the trees and we saw so many! Some were really close to us and some were further away, we saw one baby and one just walking on the road.
