    The tour to Great Ocean Road was taken by the guide named Vance who is frequent with both English and Chinese. Since I only speak English and Japanese, it was helpful that guide can speak English too.The tour was operated quite strictly about time, so the tour went so smoothly than I expected.In the tour, you don’t need to worry about the problem of language because the guide always left the paper which show what time you should come back to bus.The guide Vance is kind and funny, and I really enjoyed his guide and recommendation.And I really enjoyed the beautiful view and it was stunning!!!!

    There are many painted puppets in Geelong's tourist attractions, which are said to be a local attraction. We also saw some, but we didn't look for them specifically, so they are not complete. It is said that there is an activity on the Internet to find painted puppets. It is quite interesting to see who finds the most.
