We seemed to pack so much in this weekend on our little trip to Philip Island. After going there for the Moto GP in October I was desperate to get back there so we could see the penguins.
You won't see any photos of the penguins because there is a strict no photography rule, but take it from me that there were so darn cute with their little waddle and the way their wings flapped about.
It was a bit cloudy on Saturday morning when we left Melbourne so I switched around the itinerary and we headed to the pelican feeding at San Remo, I was amazed at how huge those birds are! Next stop was a picnic on the beach, and we happened to stumble upon a surfing competition. It was so windy though we only lasted about 10 minutes before we went and sat in the car to eat our lunch!
After that we visited the Nobbies, had a game of mini golf, had fish and chips (and some amazing gelato) in Cowes followed by a late night out at the penguin march.
On Sunday we spent most of the day at the Moonlit Sanctuary and saw loads of aussie animals. But the highlight was definitely feeding the wallabies and kangaroos. We even got a great photo for our Christmas cards!
