Phillip Island, a southern part of Melbourne which is famous for their little penguins coming out from their hiding place during dusk. This is where our 2nd day road trip/journey and it's kinda far; more so when we're not familiar with the road. My dad is driving while I'm the co-driver looking up the map to move and we succeeded in less than 2 hours covering about 170km.
We arrived in a small fishing town called San Mora before crossing the bridge over to the island to have our afternoon snack which my mum already prepared earlier before. Was a good lunch by the sea as you can smell fresh sea air while feeling the sea breeze blowing at your face and hearing the waves crashing down on the beach....
Once lunch was done, we drove to the island and visited the Wildlife Park as the price to visit Koala Park is AUD$10 to see Koala only while the Wildlife Park has about 100 species of bird and animals and it's just worth AUD$15. A wonderful trip overall but mostly kangaroos and their family species and also every native birds and animals to Australia.
We skipped the Penguin Parade as well as it's AUD$20 per person and not allow any type of photography as well as video recording. Therefore we just move about the island visiting the many beautiful surf beaches and the beaches around the island before taking the long journey back.

You should have gone to the Penguin Parade. The penguins are really cute and you will never expect that they're so small in size. To me, it was once in a life time experience that shouldn't be missed.
