Surfing central.


At Torquay
Monday, April 24, 2017

Packed up from Geelong and headed for Lorne on the Great Ocean Road.  On route, we stopped at Torquay which is the home to Rip Curl and Australian surfing.  Lots of shops.  In at the Rip Curl shop, we figured we could by a basic board for 1000, the fins for 150 each, a wet suit for 700, and then there are always lots of other accessories.  But like any other sport (i.e. skiing), you are always in for a couple of grand.  We then stopped in at Bells Beach, which just finished hosting one of the world surfing competitions.  Our final stop was at Lorne.  Glad we booked a little cottage, as it rained solid all night.
