GREAT OCEAN WALK – 31 March 2026
For those of you wondering if Peter and I could manage six nights with only 1 x 2l of cask wine.  You’ll be pleased to know that we managed just fine.  Confirmation that neither of us are alcoholics, but Peter did need to make a quick stop at the liquor store after we got back to the Big4 Caravan Park on Sunday night!

GREAT OCEAN WALK – 29-30 March 2026
So, we’re now into days 5 and 6 and the idea of doing the whole 104k of the walk (I think the others had that goal) has well and truly gone by the wayside.  It’s now about doing sections that aren’t as challenging and making sure we see the “highlights”.  And, the 5th day will see us moving to Johanna Seaside Farm House – a “must stay” if you’re in the area.

GREAT OCEAN WALK – 27 & 28 March 2026
So, we’re now into days 3 and 4.  The Great Ocean walk covers about 100k and it’s recommended to do it over 8 days.  We have 7 days at our disposal, with the plan to walk the following distances … 8k, 13.5k, 10.5k, 17.5k, 16k, 18.5k, 19.5k. I’m pretty sure that the group I’m with are keen to do the whole trip, but at my age I’m not sure I’m up for the days over 16k. Continue reading →

GREAT OCEAN WALK – 23 – 26 March 2026
Peter O and I went shopping in Apollo Bay for “supplies” for the Great Ocean Walk.  We didn’t need to break into the cast until the night of day 2.  Would a 2L cask stretch for the next 6 days?  We’d be back in town on the 7th day, so, we should have enough right?  Watch for the results on the Day 7 post!
