Fri, 25th Feb - Johanna Beach

We drove over and picked up our van at around 10:30am.  Roadstar replaced the front window with a new one and put a new back leg on to replace the one that 'The Wrecker' bent on our last trip.

Our next stop along the Great Ocean Road was Johanna Beach which is just past Apollo Bay in Victoria.  It is a free camping spot with toilets, water (not drinkable) and lovely grassy areas.  It is a huge area and we were among probably 80 or so others enjoying the spot.  You can't see them in the photo below as there are many spots behind trees, etc.   I read somewhere that when the surf is not good at Bell's Beach for a competition, they move it to Johanna Beach.  The weather at this point is rather nice but the March Flies (even though it is still February) are pretty vicious.  At this stage we decide to stay here until about Monday morning.
