Morning of our 6th day! We walked around the shops near where we stayed. Pretty interesting stuff, but I didn't get anything. It was very near the coastel area so the atmosphere was nice :)
Settled for brunch somewhere, I forgot the name of this place!
My tummy doesn't wake up very early, so I can't eat a lot in the morning.
I had a very simple meal of fruits haha. Super healthy!
The seagull was enjoying Chub's leftovers.
Walked over by the beach to enjoy the scenery.
Who takes better photos?! Me right?
We went to my next awaited attraction: The Koala Conservation Centre!
We paid only A$11.00 for the entrance.
It was a very big forested area, and once we went in, we spotted one koala!!!
It was right above us! Hee.
Then we walked and walked and couldn't find any koalas..... We thought we just spent $11 just to see 1.
But we came to this particular area, and suddenly we saw SO many of them!
This is the 2nd one we saw.
Awwwww :) :)
We read that koalas sleep a lot, and they only eat... some digestive food because their digestive system is not that good.....??? Okay Chubs just told me they eat low energy food. No wonder they're sleeping all the time. They need Red Bull man!
The next few photos are very similar, try spotting each koala in each picture! They're all different ones. The only similarity is that they're all sleeping. Zzz!! WAKE UP!! *shakes trees*
We saw a very special bird too! Not sure what this is, humming bird?
So so so beautiful :)
This concludes our stay at Philip's Island, and we made our way to probably one of the better places of our road trip: Mornington Peninsula!
This place is along the coastel area down south of Melbourne. Along the beaches, there are small towns such as: Frankson, Mornington, Dromana, Rosebud West, Rye and Sorrento. From Sorrento, you can take a car ship to the other part of Port Philip Bay towards Geelong!
And here we are, at Mornington Town Centre!
We checked into our host for the night - Morningstar Estate at Mount Eliza. http://www.morningstarestate.com.au/
It's a very pretty place, that is famous for hosting weddings! I don't know why I didn't take any photos, but please Google it. It's a worthwhile stay if you get to explore the other parts of the estate. This place is the cheapest of all the 3 we stayed - A$98.00, S$121!
And as usual at the end of every road trip, is to find food to eat!!!
We settled for The Rocks Fish & Chips, right at the end of the town area.
The fish & chips was soo good and salty! Heh. We were sheltered from the light rain, with the sea as our view. So so precious :)
It was freeezzzing up there!
After that we took a very scenic drive all the way down to Sorrento! By the time we reached Sorrento, the town shops were closed for the day so there wasn't much to see :(
In the end we just explored the small towns on the way back to our estate. I saw the famous colourful houses by the beach!! So pretty! :)
Back to the town area to have dinner at this place called Grand Hotel.
Not that grand, haha. It was a casino place and we were the ONLY Asians, it was quite intimidating >.<!!
Why does our drive home always seem so dark? I get scared when it's too dark :(
The bad thing about our hotel is that there was no TV!!!! Noooooo..... It got pretty boring at night but thankfully Chubs had some movies loaded into his iPad, so we watched The Vow. And I cried, as usual. haha!
