--Philip Island--
Philip Island is located about 140km away from Melbourne. Our main objective is to see the world smallest penguin. Since penguin will only come out when the day turn to night, we visited another 2 places - Maru Fauna Park and Nobbies Centre, before we go to penguin centre.

Maru Fauna Park is a small zoo. Again, you can see the australia animal such as kangaroo and coala.
At Nobbies Centre, you can see sealers if you are lucky enough. We were not lucky that day. As such, we just enjoy the sea sight + shaking when the freezy wind blow at our face. According to the tour guide, the place that we stand at is just 3000km away from Antarctica. The daily maximum temparature on July is 13.4'C. Imagine how so cold is it...
At 5.10pm, we headed to Penguin Centre. The world smallest penguin only can be found at Australia. The penguin's weight is only 1kg and its height is about 33cm. We are not allowed to use camera. This is because the flash of camera will cause penguin blind. So, we just sitting on beach, facing to the sea, and shaking about half an hour to see the little cute penguins walking back to their nest. The penguins are really really small and they are really really cute.
