Cockatoos, Lorne.

Lorne is a pleasant coastal town, ideal for learning to surf. Which goes something like this: rent board and wetsuit for 4 hours, attempt to get out past waves, eventually succeed, bellyflop onto board at approximately suitable moment, attempt to stand up, get swept off board, experience intense sensation of being in enormous washing machine, wait to float to surface to find out which way up you are, hit head on board (optional), gasp for breath, repeat until totally knackered and freezing cold (about 1 hour), rest for 3 hours to get moneys-worth, return wetsit and board to surf shop. Easy!
