Confession time - I came across these surf photos on the computer and couldn't for the life of me remember where they were taken. Which gorgeous beach was this? We've only been on the road for two weeks and already I am having a hard time distinguishing one gorgeous beach from another... not a good sign. (It also made us realize that it must be very hard for Australians when they go travelling and are told to go visit a 'great beach', when this is what they are used to. It really is just one amazing, gorgeous, fantastic beach after another here...)
I did, of course, figure it out, and realized they were taken at Ocean Grove Beach (in fact, another embarrassing confession - I couldn't remember its name - Ocean Beach? Orchard Grove? Old Orchard?).
It was an amazing beach though - and we'd heard about how it was terrific for beginner surfers because it's basically one big long wave breaking the whole way down the beach. They weren't wrong. We had a fantastic time playing in the surf and had our picnic lunch there. We should have stayed longer - but we had just set off in the van and had set our sights on Anglesea for the night.
