    Great Ocean Road - 12 Apostles

    December 12, 2016 in Australia ⋅ ☀️ 24 °C

    The 12 Apostles was first called the piglets but this was not a very marketable name to attract tourists so the changed it to the 12 Apostles. Actually, there have never been 12 but in fact only 9 structures (currently there are only 7 structures left as the ocean has eroded 2 to the point that they fell over) on the beach thats called the 12 Apostles.

    The size of these stone structures and the surrounding cliffs reminds you of the majestic sight of the Grand Canyon. The stormy ocean just adds more mystery to it.
