{Under Construction}

Werribee, Geelong, Torquay, Anglesea, Lorne... actually you won't find any of those in this gallery at this time since on our first trip west we blasted past those places because we were late following a strike by Qantas baggage handlers, and went straight for Apollo Bay after an unmemorable lunch at Werribee.

In due course I'll probably split this gallery up into more granular ones, but for now... Apollo Bay, and west to the Apostles.

The Apostles are geological "stacks" of limestone left behind as the surrounding rock was eroded by the sea, gradually pushing the coastline back. Since the stacks themselves are made of the same soft stone, these too will eventually be broken down by the sea (one collapsed only a few years ago) though in time new ones will probably form as the existing coastline moves back further. There aren't 12 Apostles (and never were, in fact), though they're sometimes known as that. How many there are depends on where you count from. In fact the name itself is a marketing ploy; they were once known as the Sow and Piglets, but The Apostles was thought to be a name with more tourist appeal.

They're the principal thing that we went to see on this trip.
