Geelong Foreshore

Meet up with our friends who we worked with up at Coppabella bus driving down the road at a lovely bakery for morning coffees and a catchup then over to their place for dinner tonight to see Kay's beautiful new kitchen and see all John's work on extensions.  Only 23klms from our campsite in Portarlington foreshore we decided to have a look at Geelong foreshore as I had seen on television programs many times the painted poles.  So many of them depicting history events of this area.  The whole foreshore has been revamped since we called 15 years ago and is a lovely place to go.  It appears the locals utilise this on a daily basis as when we were strolling along, heaps of folk of all age groups are strolling with babies, like ourselves - sight seeing, joggers in their lunch hours and friends meeting for coffee or lunches.





The Beachhouse Cafe overlooking child safe swimming pool and then this large sea bath with diving platforms and can you see the swimmer in the water in this cold time of the year?

Our friend tells me the lady who instigated these, patented them and so even though she has since passed on, I guess nobody can copy them?!?!
