Guys, just a heads up if you’re traveling to Melbourne cbd

There has been protests every weekend by the pro Palestine/pro Israel mobs, and also climate change peeps.

Usually on Saturday mornings.

Few Starbucks have been vandalised lately.

Although usually peaceful, just stay safe

thank you for the heads up right there! How's the weather over there, i've been monitoring for the past week its around 15-19ish .

It’s not that warm yet, so definitely pack a jacket.

It’s been very mild the past week, no extreme heat or cold, just nice.

If you’re heading out to places like great ocean road, it could be very windy so pack something more substantial

I only made it as far as Torquay for the Great Ocean Road drive ... didn't have time, as I would have missed the Ferry boarding over at Geelong. Will definitely do it again. It's one of the must do items on my bucket list!

Yeah definitely do that.

It’s one of the most beautiful places in Australia IMO.

I’ve been to the 12 apostles maybe half a dozen times already, and I’ve still not gotten used to it.

Yeah.... It's just the thought of having to do the drive from Sydney down to Geelong all over again sigh .... I could always do the inland route and "race" down there, but that also defeats the fun of the coastal drive.

You live in Sydney?

I’ve never done the coastal route before. Did the inland a few times.

I have 2 kids now and I’m just not brave enough to have them scream at me for 12 hours in the car laugh.gif
