Farewell!
Thanks to all who’ve faithfully followed us on this short but amazing journey through south-east Australia. Special mentions must go to Texnessa and grelg for their support, and anyone who liked or reblogged the ‘green square’ post. A few highlights: Our unexpected visit to Taronga Zoo, Vanessa absolutely killing it up and down mount buffalo and the great alpine road, Rob’s constant and terrible chatter, anyone not shooting on green square, not dying on a Melbourne train, and whole egg mayonnaise! Some things we learned: Bracketing is NOT HDR (cheers Timmy), it’s fun to throw pasta at funnel web spiders, the southern states are still freezing in summer, campervans require latches on cupboards, daylight saving is stupid, iPhones are the source of all life, and most importantly, never go to bairnsdale!
You may have noticed a disproportionate amount of posts by tal - this owes to his quick, lazy editing and ownership of the iPhone - all the boys got their share of amazing shots. Keep watch of these in the following weeks: Rob: http://www.flickr.com/photos/robpascoe/

We hope you enjoyed following us, the boys have unanimously agreed that another road trip is a certainty. Let us know if you’re keen to join.
Rob, Tim, Alex and Tal.
Day 16
51km driven, 41 photos taken. It’s been a day of clean up and wrap up as the trip comes to a satisfying close with beers in a very comfortable house in Geelong. Heading to Melbourne in the morning to drop Tal off with some relatives and send Rob, Alex and Tim back to brissy. Stay tuned for the trip overview and highlights.

393km driven, 425 photos taken. We rolled into Geelong for a shop and headed through to coastal Torquay to catch a great sunset. Here’s an enthusiastic Timmy running to grab some gear for a shot he’s just spotted.

Charging the iPhone at a random power outlet at Westfield, Geelong. Getting some stares.. But we need this baby to make do.

Day 14
260km driven, 194 photos taken. Check out this beast! Found on the ground of the kitchen, ticked it off a bit and the fangs were ready to strike, looks very dangerous. Probably the highlight of the day.. We had an interesting trip to mount aripiles but didn’t do much shooting. Heading off to Geelong and Torquay tomorrow.
