_AUS7013Sonnywe can sense we are getting closer to those Apostles, but still a way to go _AUS7015Sonnygood for lobster down there I'm sure, how clean is that water _AUS7021Sonnynow, it's getting to that stage where it feels like every 300m there is a turn off with a look out _AUS7026Sonnycoastline here, for about 40 km is littered with scenic look outs like this one _AUS7031Sonnywhich is great for me _AUS7035Sonnybut we haven't got all day to look at every single one _AUS7043Sonnylike this one was just a little bit too long of a walk from the carpark for this one hehehe 🙂 _AUS7071Sonnyone more _AUS7049Sonnycouldn't skip out on this one though, the famous london bridge, it used to connect to the mainland, and tourists would regularly walk across it, thankfully no one was on it when it collapsed Screen shot 2012-04-29 at 9.17.27 PMhere's a shot I found when it was still intact, but shot from the other side Nbhyjhere's another one, apparently, when it collapsed, people had just walked back across it, got to this point here to take a photo and watched it collapse, they must have thanked their lucky stars it did not happen 5 minutes earlier _AUS7086Sonnyfew more look outs _AUS7088Sonny

_AUS7115Sonnyand finally, we reached our destination, the famous 12 apostles _AUS7121Sonnywould be cool to surf down there, you'd only have about 200 tourists take your photo every 15 minutes 🙂 _AUS7126Sonny

_AUS7167Sonnyat the carpark, there's also a heliport for scenic heli rides, so love this shot of the windsock and arrows _AUS7181Sonnyall those shots I just took at the 12 apostles had a nice hazy feel to them, and this is why, as we drive on about 20 km further inland, we see this massive bushfire burning, pretty sure it was a controlled burn off though _AUS7188Sonnylast shot of the day near Johanna Beach
