Kiama & The Grand Pacific Highway




Yeah, I know it's a weird name, but last Saturday we took a drive down to Wollongong, a city about 85km South of Sydney and then down to Kiama -a little further on. The first shot is down below at Kiama Beach and the second photo of the same beach from the top of a hill overlooking the beach and the Grand Pacific Highway. If you look closely - maybe click on the pic to enlarge - you can see that the highway extends into the sea. We drove across it on the way up to where we shot the second photo. It really is pretty. We don't know why they built it like that, but I think it was probably safer than trying to stick a road to a cliff with rockfalls etc. - maybe an idea for Chapman's Peak, hey?
