Never drinking again, again...!

For our last night in Melbourne we had decided to hit the hay early ready to set off at 'crack of sparrow' to the Great Ocean road the following morning. There was a free wine and cheese (bad cheese, even worse wine) thingy going on in the Hostel at 7:30pm so we thought, a couple of drinks and chat to some people before retiring for the evening at around 10pm....... 9 hours later, at 4:30am, we piled into our Dorm room a little the worse for wear having spent the evening drinking about a dozen 'last' drinks. We both passed out for a couple hours of sleep before setting out later that morning.

Needless to say we were both a little the worse for wear and I drove out through the Melbourne traffic on auto pilot.

However, the Great Ocean Road was amazing and despite our respective hangovers we took several hours to drive it's 300km length as we kept stopping off to enjoy the sites. In fact as it took us so long, coupled with setting off a little late, we ended up sleeping in the car just outside Port Fairy. It wasn't the best nights sleep I've ever had but wasn't too bad either. Rachael had some type of nightmare in the middle of the night about people breaking into the car and awoke mumbling and flailing but apart from that it worked ok - not sure we'll be repeating it though!
