Great Ocean Road
Began orientation #3, University Orientation. MISERABLE! By now, I was sick of the ice breaker games and small talk so I skipped a lot of events there. Plus, the talks in the morning were geared towards incoming freshman and as a senior I hopefully have that under control by now. Hopefully.
But we had a weekend break before starting classes so we planned a trip to the Great Ocean Road. I was one of three drivers. Driving on the left side? Not too bad.. Driving on the left side in a foreign city?? Terrifying. I had to dodge both people and trams in an effort to make it out of the city alive. I survived with only one comical story. As we ventured from our first stop along the Great Ocean Road, I got stopped and breath-a-lized as part of a routine thing. Highly entertaining at the time. But we made it to the 12 Apostles right at sunset and that was amazing. Such a beautiful sight. The Great Ocean Road runs through Australian countryside the majority of the time, so it was strange to be in such a big tourist spot with literally nothing but grass and cows around you for miles (or kilometers if I’m getting fancy here).
