Yeah what can I really tell you? We left around lunchtime today to go for a spin with our orange beetle Herman the German and came a bit further than we’d expected! We drove first to Torquay which is famous for its surfing locations. After a walk and chillout on the beach we continued on the Great Ocean Road. It’s a beautiful road with lots of curves and twists which inspires the Colin McRae in me, shouting out “Easy right, hard left, S-bend!” Well, maybe not shouting but you get the drift.

A lot of bends and turns later we arrived in Lorne which seemed like a pretty relaxed place with its beaches, backpackerpeople and nice restaurants. We had the best burgers ever and relaxed, taking in the atmosphere and tasted the salty air.

Being able to drive an old suntanned beetle to the beach, with the windows down and Beach Boys pumping high in the summer, is a pretty good feeling… Must admit that it’s a bit tempting to buy two surfboards and then mount on the roof of Herman to finalize the surflook. What do you think?

And oh by the way, did I mention that summer is finally here? :)
