Australia Day 1

My WHOLE family arrived Melbourne the night before and some of us were still exhausted from the long hour flight. We got ready early morning where my younger sister cooked breakfast for us. It was heavy one because she wanted to make sure we were well feed before the long drive for the day. This trip consists of my parents, my elder sister with her husband and two babies, my 2 younger sisters ,myself, my sister who is studying in Melbourne and her cute and hardworking partner.

The plan for today was to Phillip Island and on the way there, we will stop at Maru Animal Park to visit some rare and furry creatures that only live in Australia..

We paid $13 for the entrance fee each person and were allowed to spend as much time as you want in the park. We fed kangaroos. OK, not "we". It was only my sister, dad and brother in law because the rest of us were scared of animals. We just stood aside and looked in amazement.

This is me acting brave when my dad was feeding the kangaroo. Some of the kangaroos actually have babies in their pouch.

This is the lazy koala bear. It was sleeping when we came and still sleeping when we walked away.

Emus.. The weather on this day was good. Clear sky.

Dingoes.. a type of dog.

Tazmanian devil, looking safe to near to. But the sign there said it will jump and bite of your finger if you put your finger near the fence.

There are some other animals in the park and I feel lazy to list all down. :P

5 sisters (with a baby. she is stucked)


Then we carried on journey to Phillip Island and stopped before the brige that going into Phillip Island for photos..

In this picture, there is the nobbies, sea rock at the back (look like rough line of rocks) and bass strait.

This is my youngest sister with the nobbies blowhole. It is a 12metre long turnel drilled into the cliff by strong wave.

We stopped at the road side to take photo with cows because the grass looks so greenish and cows so healthy.

Then we went along the road and stopped at this place called the Anzacs beach where surfers surfed in the cold freezing water and dangerous current. Bear in mind it is winter now in Australia. At night I think the temperature goes as low as 3 celcius. LOL
