Chapter 1563 Tianchang



There is only one disabled parking space under the lighthouse, and the main parking lot is on the left side of the way up. Just looking at this lighthouse, it is indeed more beautiful than the famous Cape Otway Lighthouse on the Great Ocean Road. You can buy tickets to visit this lighthouse on weekdays, but it was closed when Yunluo and An Chuyu went there. So they walked around the lighthouse.

There are several good viewing platforms, so I continued taking photos. The car did not stop when passing Anglesea. When I looked through other posts later, I found that there were kangaroos in the golf club here. It was a little regretful. Who made me not do my homework seriously? When the car drove near Aireys Inlet, I found a lighthouse nearby.

So we turned onto Lighthouse Rd. There was only one disabled parking space under the lighthouse, and the main parking lot was on the left side of the way up. Just looking at this lighthouse, it is indeed more beautiful than the famous Cape Otway Lighthouse on the Great Ocean Road. You can buy tickets to visit this lighthouse on weekdays, but it was closed when Yunluo and An Chuyu went there.

So I walked around the lighthouse and found a few nice viewing platforms, so I continued taking pictures. Lighthouse Lighthouse Sea View Sea View Not far from the lighthouse back to the Great Ocean Road, the memorial arch, a landmark building of the Great Ocean Road that I thought I had missed, suddenly appeared in front of me. I quickly pulled over to take pictures. The next road was closer to the ocean.

The car was moving fast between the ocean and the rock walls, but from time to time we would encounter fast cars behind us. When we came across a section where we could give way, we would turn the steering wheel, slow down and drive to the side, letting the passers-by pass, and then return to our own pace and drive relaxed. Yunluo was fiddling with his phone inadvertently in the car, and suddenly found that the navigation had a signal.

A red dot clearly showed the location of Yunluo and An Chuyu. Haha! Good! Later, I heard from experts that the power of mobile phone navigation is low. Sometimes it takes minutes or even longer to search for satellites after changing locations. So when we were at the airport, we didn't wait for it to find a signal. Around 1:00 pm, Yunluo and An Chuyu arrived at today's destination.

The resort town of Lorne. This town left a very good impression on Yunluo: the town is not big, with a beautiful little bay, and full of happy holidaymakers. The sun shines through the branches and leaves on the road, and the air is fresh and intoxicating. The first stop is to go to the Information Center, where you can buy tickets for the Cape Otway Lighthouse and the Treetopwalk.

Each ticket is a dollar cheaper. I bought the treetop walk ticket here. I also got some introductions to the attractions. Please pay attention to the lowercase "i" sign on the Information Center, only such signs are open. After a short distance along the road, I arrived at the hotel where Yunluo and An first met: Grand Pacific Hotel.

This hotel is the one that Yunluo mentioned earlier, which was changed from Daojiang to Dao/Tian. This hotel was built in 2000 and has no elevator. Yunluo and An Chuyu booked a Pacific Double room, which is not very big. It is a bit hard to turn around, but the bathroom is as big as the room, and it seems to have been converted from another room. There are wooden stairs and old photos on the wall.

It has some traces of time. Since Lorne is a place for locals to relax and have fun, the price of accommodation has increased significantly at this time. Yunluo and An Chuyu are satisfied to be able to stay at this price. After checking in, they planned to go out for a walk. When they came out, they found that the hotel was in a good location. It was just across the road from the famous Lorne Pier, so they went to take a look.

There were many people fishing on the pier, but after looking around, they all came up empty-handed. Wait, something's going on. Two local old men caught a net of crabs, which was really exciting for Yunluo and An Chuyu who hadn't finished their meal yet! Shallow children! Crab-catching boats for newcomers on the beach. There is a seafood restaurant next to the pier. Let's go and scout it out while there are few people.

As he was watching, an old man came to greet him. He was a frequent visitor here. Today, he and his wife drove here specially for dinner. He highly praised this restaurant and strongly suggested that Yunluo and An Chuyu try the fish here. After learning that Yunluo and An Chuyu were from China, the old man became even more excited and said that he had been to Sihai City. His grandson was still working in Sihai City, etc.

After chatting with the old man for a while, Yunluo and An Chuyu said goodbye temporarily, went to the supermarket in town to buy breakfast and water for tomorrow, and then returned to the restaurant to eat. On the way to the supermarket, the powerful Beetle returned to the restaurant and found a seat. The enthusiastic old man had not finished his meal yet, and his face was red, probably because he drank. As soon as he saw Yunluo and An Chuyu coming back.

The old man immediately picked up a blackboard and ran straight to Yunluo and An Chuyu. Don't get me wrong, it's not that the old man was drunk, but the restaurant here writes the special dishes of the day on the blackboard, such as the fish caught that day, for customers to choose. The old man enthusiastically gave Yunluo and An Chuyu suggestions, and at this time the waiter came over to take the order.

The old man said jokingly: "It's their sales." While waiting for the dishes to be served, the old man finished his meal and was about to leave. They said hello and goodbye to each other. Today, I really saw the enthusiasm of the Australian people. There were many people in the restaurant that day. After about minutes, Yunluo and An Chuyu's dishes finally arrived. As for the taste, Yunluo thought it was okay, but not awesome enough.

Yunluo's stomach was still getting used to western food. The final cost of this meal was 10,000 yuan. Yunluo and An Chuyu's dishes Yunluo and An Chuyu's dishes Yunluo and An Chuyu's dishes After dinner, we strolled on the pier. Yunluo and An Chuyu's restaurant. The pier, the left one is the newly built one, and the right one is the old pier, which has been preserved for a while.

After waking up, I invited everyone to have breakfast on the balcony of the hotel. I boiled a pot of water, made tea, added some Australian milk, bread and ham, and it was a rich breakfast. I leaned back in my chair, looking at the bay not far away. The colorful flags hanging on the hotel fluttered in the wind. I had the illusion that I was in a small Swiss town.

There were a few local birds on the balcony railings. They were not beautiful, but they were picking up the scraps on the ground leisurely. Suddenly, a white light appeared on the tree in the distance, and it came to the balcony while they were talking. The original birds had all dispersed. Yunluo was happy to see that they were actually a few crested cockatoos. Well, the leftover bread had a good place to go, and the parrots were not in a hurry.

I waited for Yunluo and An Chuyu to pass the bread to me again and again. During this time, another local bird also wanted to have a share of the pie. The big white parrot flapped its wings, slightly lifted into the air, and kicked the bird away with one leg. I played with the parrot for a while, and seeing that it was getting late, I packed my luggage. I set off at 12:00. I took a photo of the hotel balcony looking back at the town.

Yunluo and An Chuyu's car had several sections on the road that could only be used in one direction today, usually controlled by staff or automatic signal lights. This was probably the location of the landslide a few days ago. After driving for a while, Yunluo and An Chuyu arrived at the town of Wyeriver. After draining the water, they continued to move forward. On the way, Yunluo and An Chuyu encountered another very beautiful Lookout.

The sea was azure and magnificent, with waves of white waves in between, it was a perfect picture. Sea view Sea view When the car was near Wongarra, LD suddenly shouted, "Treetop Walk". That's not right. The guide clearly stated that you have to go after the Otway Lighthouse to reach this attraction. But the sign on the side of the road clearly pointed to a fork in the road, so we decided to turn around.

Turning onto Sunnyside Rd. It turned out that Yunluo and An Chuyu took a non-mainstream route, leaving the Great Ocean Road, passing through farms and primitive forests, and finally arriving from the east side of Otway Treetop Walk. Although they missed a section of the Great Ocean Road and Apollo Bay, this road brought Yunluo and An Chuyu more surprises.

It also opened up a new self-driving road for Yunluo and An Chuyu. After the car turned onto the fork road, as the terrain began to go up the mountain, the two sides of the road showed the characteristics of grasslands, and the trains on the opposite road passed by from time to time. When passing through a valley. The flocks of sheep in it attracted the attention of Yunluo and An Chuyu, and they stopped the car to take pictures. The IPAD on the road had no signal at this time.

Following the instructions of the navigation, when there is a fork in the road ahead, turn left to Forrest-Apollo Bay Rd and then walk onto Turtons Road. This section is one of the most impressive routes of this trip. The entire section of the road is narrow and there are few vehicles. Large vans and RVs cannot pass through. There are virgin forests on both sides, and the air is very fresh and moist.

Yunluo and An Chuyu couldn't help but open the window and breathe deeply. Since they couldn't stop on the road, they took photos in the car. They drove along the road and gradually walked out of the forest. The two sides became open again, and they began to see houses and grass. Soon after, Yunluo and An Chuyu came to a small town: BeechForest. After releasing the water in the town's infocenter.

A map inside attracted Yunluo's attention, and he took a photo to record it. The sign of the highway truck town was exactly this map. It answered Yunluo and An Chuyu's previous questions about the route, and also became a beacon for Yunluo and An Chuyu to return to the Great Ocean Road. It seems that adapting to local conditions is also very important during the journey. It was almost noon.

After discussion, everyone decided to go back to the town for dinner. This unintentional decision brought Yunluo and An Chuyu an unforgettable lunch experience. There is only one restaurant in this town, which also provides accommodation. The name of the restaurant is The Beechy Pub. It is the same place as Beech Forest Hotel Motel on Google Maps.

I pushed open the door of the restaurant, and there were no customers in the restaurant. There was only a young man at the bar drinking and chatting with a few elderly people, and the melody of "Hotel California" echoed in the room. I looked around the restaurant, and there were old-fashioned jukeboxes, cigarette machines and various old objects placed against the wall. There were big axes, chainsaws and large cutting gears hanging on the wall.

Don't think in the wrong way, listen to Yunluo. There is a piece of photos on the wall. Eh? Isn't the person in the photo the young man at the bar? Some of the discolored photos record the young man's life experience, as well as his friends and customers. I looked at the menu on the blackboard on the wall and went to the bar to order. When ordering, I accidentally heard the old man ask the waitress.

"Is that Jack the driver? He was there at the time." "Sorry, there was no one in that car." Yun Luo immediately saw the big photo on the wall and understood why this restaurant had so many "heavy weapons." This must have been a small town dominated by logging back then, and these old people were the builders and regular customers here.

The photos recorded their youthful memories. Without interrupting their conversation, the old man continued to immerse himself in his memories, and Yunluo was also infected by the traces of time revealed by this restaurant! The menu of the old man's restaurant at the bar. After a while, Yunluo and An Chuyu's meal arrived. At first glance, Yunluo and An Chuyu regretted it a little, these hamburgers.

Each sandwich was large enough, and ordering three was enough. Although the town is far from the central area, the ingredients are very fresh, and every dish has received unanimous praise from Yunluo and An Chuyu. It is no exaggeration to call them the best burgers and sandwiches that Yunluo and An Chuyu have had on this trip. After eating, I asked the young man for directions, and it was about km from here to Treetop Walk.

They left the restaurant reluctantly and took some photos. Soon, Yunluo and An Chuyu arrived at the entrance of OTWAY Treetop Walk. Here is a brief introduction to the scenic spot. In fact, both the treetop walk and the OTWAY lighthouse that Yunluo and An Chuyu are going to visit belong to the Great Otway National Park (GREATOTWAYNATIONA 安初遇ARK).

The entire park is located in the Great Ocean Road area between Anglesea and Cape Otway. It covers an area of ​​10,000 hectares. The treetop walk is a steel aerial walkway that passes through the tallest treetops in Australia. It is about meters long and meters high at the highest point. It can withstand strong winds of KM/H.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

It is the longest and highest treetop walkway in the world. Although it took a huge amount of manpower and material resources to build it, the social and economic benefits it has gained far exceed the benefits of cutting down the rainforest. It brings a unique experience to tourists. The ticket I bought in Lorne came in handy at this time. After showing it, I entered the park for a walking tour.

The road was surrounded by tall trees and ferns. Following the road signs, we soon arrived at the entrance of the passage. After playing around, the overall feeling was very good. There was an even more interesting passage that led out. The whole tour took about half an hour, and then we got on the bus to the next attraction - Cape Otway Lighthouse. Get on the bus at the tall tree skyway.

Take out your camera and check the map you took in the town. If you continue along the road at this point, you can drive back to the Great Ocean Road, but you will miss the lighthouse and have to go back a long way. Another option is to go back the way you just came. There is a dirt road heading south near the town that can directly connect back to the Great Ocean Road, and the lighthouse is not far away.

After the discussion, we once again showed our spirit of not taking the usual route today, and returned to the town along Binns Rd and Aire Valley Rd to get back on the Great Ocean Road. This road can be said to be the wildest section of this self-driving journey, but the navigation is still meticulous work. The whole road is gravel but fairly flat, about KM, and it took minutes to drive.

Judging from the signs on both sides, there are many trucks here. There are no landscapes along the way, but there are surprises. Yunluo and An Chuyu saw a group of red parrots. There were so many of them that Yunluo preferred to name this road "Parrot Road" in Yunluo's way. An E-series car accompanied Yunluo and An Chuyu, and they must have bumped more than Yunluo and An Chuyu.

Finally we turned onto the Great Ocean Road. The road was so smooth that it was a little hard to get used to. Following the road signs, we turned left and drove onto the road to the lighthouse. Once we got on this road, everyone in the car had to be alert. Why? Because there were koalas here! Although the guides I had read before said there was a eucalyptus forest there, we didn't know where it was. We drove for a while.

Suddenly, my friend who was driving shouted, "Koala!" Is this true? We can see koalas while driving. We got out of the car and saw that we were lucky! There was more than one koala on the tree. We took a lot of photos. The cars behind us pulled over and joined the team. We stopped and started along the way and saw at least a dozen koalas.

The closest contact I had with a sleeping koala was when I was returning from the lighthouse and passing by this door (the ground was paved with iron pipes). I also heard the koala's cry here, which was very inconsistent with its identity, a bit like the cry of a cow. If you still can't find the koala after reading this post, you can only blame yourself. The koala eating had no intention of going to the lighthouse.

I didn't buy a ticket in Lorne, I just wanted to see the surrounding scenery. After arriving, I found that the Australian people here are a bit unkind. The entrance is built very far in front, and you have to walk for a while before you get there. If you don't buy a ticket, you can't even see the sea, let alone the lighthouse. In this case, then buy a ticket and go in, don't leave regrets. In general.

This lighthouse is more plain than the one Yunluo and An Chuyu saw yesterday. It is not beautiful, but the view around it is good, much better than yesterday. This lighthouse is ranked second in the end. A more beautiful lighthouse is waiting for Yunluo and An Chuyu in Tasmania. After leaving here, Yunluo and An Chuyu started to rush to the most important attraction of the day.

Disciple Scenic Area Group. After driving back to the Great Ocean Road from Lighthouse Road, from this section of the road to Gibson Steps, you will be away from the sea view for most of the time and will instead be traveling on a mountain road. After a while, the sea view begins to reappear on the left side of the road. At this time, pay attention to the roadside signs. After seeing the Gibson Steps sign, Yunluo and An Chuyu stopped to take a photo.

This is also the only one of the nearby attractions that can go down to the beach. When the scenery left Gibson Steps, it was already past midnight. I walked all the way and didn't see the sign of the disciples. As we were talking, we arrived at the town of Port Campbell. So I checked in first and put down my luggage. The owner had left, but the key was already at the door. There is a big yard inside the hotel. (~^~)
