Rods Trip

I went for a drive out around The Bellarine. It has many beautiful towns dotted throughout the region. At Portarlington, you can look over the bay and see the Melbourne skyline. At Point Lonsdale, you can watch ships navigating through the heads of Port Phillip Bay, I was fortunate enough to watch a pilot vessel guiding out a container ship and The Spirit of Tasmania was arriving. Continuing on I stopped at Queenscliff to have a look around. At Fort Queenscliff, there is a black lighthouse, yes it really is black, because its basalt structure was never painted. Its the only one in Australia and only one of three in the world. It really is a fantastic area and you would need a long time to discover all its delights.
