Day 35 Port Campbell to Cumberland River 138Kms

We got a reasonable start this morning as we had a tough day ahead of us- they had to climb Lavers Hill (approx. 19 kms). Actually they were climbing most of the day and everyone was wanting to get as much sightseeing done in the allocated time.
Morning tea was at the top of Lavers Hill at a cafe. Once we went past Lavers Hill they all seemed to disperse doing their own little things, in/out of the different viewing stations and beaches along the road.
They all made it safely to Apollo Bay where Pat's partner Tim joined us for the night. Lunch at Apollo  Bay. Robbo was late getting in to lunch after taking some detour. Cumberland River is just a caravan park where the river meets the sea. Cute little caravan park enclosed by some cliffs. Very busy even though the weather was cold and windy. We couldn't boil the kettle as they supply their own electricity via their own hydro plant. 
Kangaroos were hopping around down near the river but when I tried to find Richard to show him, he was nowhere in sight. Will he get to see a live kangaroo before we finish? These were big kangaroos!
