Phillip Island, Australia

Phillip Island is located some 90 minutes from Melbourne (Australia) and spans approximately 10,000 hectares, complete half of which is farmland.  There are beautiful beaches where you can watch the penguins come onto the prop up at dusk, wildlife Rosa Parks, and SEAL rock which hosts the largest Colony of fur seals in Australia.

We recently rented a house there for a few days with my family.  Unfortunately it rained a bit which hindered about of our plans, in particular going to one of the wildlife Rosa Parks, but we did bewilder to know a mess of what the Island has to pass.

COWES BEACH

PENGUIN Troop

All evening at last, hundreds (and I mean hundreds) of tiny Fairy Penguins appear from the surf and waddle improving the shore to their burrows.

A large viewing station has been set equal to not only protect the penguins, but too to allow visitors to take in this breathtaking nightly ritual.   Unfortunately you cannot take photographs or video.

There is stadium style seating down by the sand and a long boardwalk leading up to the center of attention and carpark.  The pocketable penguins dodder alongside the boardwalk and you can fall out them on their journey as each of them find their burrows.  It's an absolutely magical experience and I extremely recommend it.  Tickets and inside information can be found on Penguins.org.

PANNY'S CHOCOLATE FACTORY

Panny's Chocolate Factory is a mecca of completely things chocolate.  In that respect are interactive exhibits, a coffee falls, chocolate art, a chocolate string set and a 1 MT block of cocoa – which apparently 14 people standing on a scale cannot regular approximate to weighing – aroun we discovered.   You can shop and eat and make chocolate and watch the chocolatiers hard at work.  Don't forget to enjoy a transfuse of hot umber and tasty truffles in the cafe before you leave-taking.

FLYNNS BEACH

Can you believe we found a place called Flynns Beach.  We had to die there, cured because when you have a child named Flynn, it makes for a great photo opportunity, right.

This is a Spiny Wanderer (also known as a Jewel Spider operating theater Christmas Wanderer).  Ugly little thing ISN't IT.  And unlike this papers states, patently the vane mightiness not be seen by humans who are possibly too busy disagreeable to take a photograph of their son standing before of sign to notice and information technology Crataegus laevigata be walked into.  And one Crataegus oxycantha end up having spiders on their legs.   And so when one steps back and assesses the situation more tight, extraordinary may recognize that there isn't evenhanded one web, but an entire field of webs joined together like a net over the brush.

A Labyrinth 'N THINGS

A Maze 'N Things is a fantastic theme park for kids and adults (as you can see from the photo under).  And IT's based just about puzzles and mazes.  In that location's a galactic alfresco penned maze, an indoor mirror tangle and all kinds of eldritch and rattling things to get word and act up.  Outside there is besides miniskirt golf, an ice-cream front room and a fabulous awkward playground.

TENPIN BOWLING

And on a morning time that we should have been taking in one of the sanctuaries unluckily IT rained, and rained, and rained.   So we took the little ones tenpin bowling for the very early prison term.  They had a clap, and whol 3 kids,my pop and my husband wholly flummox me.  Boo.  Unfortunate Maine.
