Grampians National Park, Victoria Australia

Left the Great Ocean Road for the Grampians National Park. The Park is a place of spectacular rugged beauty and has more than 800,000 visitors each year. We wanted to do a hike there but when we got there, we found that rains and floods of January 2010 had destroyed some of the roads and trails and as a result, we were unable to pursue the route we had hoped to take.  Did a little hiking anyway and saw two more kangaroos in the wild, then went to an amazing lookout (Barouka Lookout) which is about 3,000 metres above sea level and took some pictures.

Once back in Melbourne, (after a very long drive!), we headed out for a walk to stretch our legs and ended up at a pub taste testing Australian Beer.  We were of course doing this for Manny as we have been looking all over the country for something for his bar - they just don't sell it.  This however will not deter us from trying, there are still lots of pubs out there with possibilities.  Got your back Manny!
