Hi All, Another update in quick succession to the last, and we are not even on holidays 
We took the opportunity of Melbourne Cup day to take a drive in the Sara’s new truck. We need to have the kilometres up so we can tow the van in a couple of weeks, and we also needed to run the engine in a bit so i thought a nice drive along the Great Ocean Road would meet our needs. The engine would not sit at any single RMP level and the car would not get over 90KPH. All good.
Also, after watching a camping DVD over the weekend we saw a segment on Stevenson’s Falls which looked nice and would be on our route so off we went.
The drive to the falls turn off was uneventful. It was once we made the turn off that the fun began with a couple of kilometres of winding dirt road we took the car bush and its not even a week old. The road was actually in great condition and wound through some nice forest. I am glad we had the new car as i could never of taken the commodore down this road. At the end of the road we found the Stevenson falls camping area, which actually had quite a few family's making use of it for the long week end. It seemed a great spot if you have a tent or camper trailer. From here it was another short drive to the falls walking trail.
The walking trail is only 500m and is an easy walk. The surroundings are great and there was a lot of water coming over the falls which made for a very misty environment and a nice clean running river. I also managed to pick up a leech which was not discovered for about 30mins so it was well fed.
After the falls we drove to Kennet River for lunch before we took the winding great ocean road home via Lorne and Anglesea.
