PHOTO OPS..........

As promised, here are some photos from the trip to Blanket Bay:

This Mad Max like character was behind us twice.
I got Snorkmaiden to take a shot of him the first time which didn't work out, but the second time she got him good!!!
He even had a heeler next to him just lke Mel Gibson.


The stubborn koala in the middle of the road, his mate had more sense and walked off fairly promptly.




Jeff who accommodated us on his camp site and his brother John.


My little sculpture by the sea.


My little Snorkmaiden by the sea.

Snorkmaiden looking at a crab shell she found whilst fossicking around rock pools.

The crab shell itself.


The next morning's photographic shoot down the beach saw Snorkmaiden capture this beauty on my digital camera whilst I rooted around with Teh 'Hoff.


Leaving on the last day we stopped to snap some of the koalas in their natural environment and highly bizarre poses.






Towards the end of the Great Ocean Road there is this iconic house which was built some 30 years ago I think. Built by an engineer, it stands erect and isolated on the hinterland slope and was recently sold for a princely sum. The bearer column is longer than visible and the house only accessible by the little walkway.


Next post I'll write some about my actual surgery and some post surgery antics.

Awesome photos. Koalas are weird funny looking things. Looks like it was a great trip!
 
Great photos - just letting you know I am stealing some for my comp to show the locals... they all love the little furry buggers
 
Love the pics. Do koalas bite?
 
Maja - It was indeed a great trip out of the city and they are a weird looking critter, very lazy though.

Mr Bananas - I concur. They are the some of the least intellectually stimulating creatures ever. But they make up by being cute.

Northern Muse - Tah very much and you're welcome to share the shots with yer mates.

Karen - Koalas don't really bite but they can turn on a bit of speed and their claws will literally tear strips off you. Then of course there are the drop bears too, watch out for those ones.
