The government has decided to charge MONEY to visit the Twelve Apostles! Unaustralian!

Maybe we should go all the way and turn it into a 12 (7) Apostles theme park!

@firstdogonthemoon aye.. recently visited and the number of Chinese tourists pouring out of busses on day trips from Melbourne was unreal! .. Couldn't go down the Gibson steps as the cliff is eroding..I much preferred a less busy stop at the grotto..a lovely spot. #GreatOceanRoad
