On Saturday, March 9, we were ready to hit the Great Ocean Road to see the 12 apostles and the Gibson Steps. Of all the pictures I've seen in tour brochures, I was really looking forward to taking these photos of these sights. We were supposed to be picked up at 10:05am and by 10:25, we finally called the tour company. We were told the tour was cancelled - that the driver/tour guide was sick and that they tried to contact us the night before to let us know so that we could be booked on the earlier tour (without the sunset). They said that they tried to call us on our mobile and even called the hostel to find us but the hostel said we weren't staying there. It was just a series of unfortunate incidents added up that resulted in us missing this one attraction I really wanted to see.
The one gem we found was a bar called the Golden Monkey. It was described as an establishment reminiscent of a 1920s Shanghai opium den. We were sold.

Can you find Hello Kitty at the bar? |
We had a couple drinks each here - some very different, specialty drinks (Assassin in the Grass, Siamese Split, Not So Dark and Stormy). It reminded us of the speakeasy in NYC called PDT with their special, funky drinks and a bit of a time travel through the decor.

So, it's too bad that we missed the Great Ocean Road but we made the best of it and had a really fun evening. I know this won't be the only time our plans will fall through so I should get better at letting things like this bother me. It was a good reminder.
