a day at phillip island

Phillip Island is an island located just outside Melbourne. And it has penguins! And a chocolate factory! And a wild koala park, and numerous vineyards... Sold to the stupid tourist over here!!

Yes you can hire a car and drive there yourself for half the price... But what's the fun in that:)? So me and Lena got on the super-tourist tour with the super gay super cool tour guide to Phillip Island, to see the penguins... And to see the chocolate factory of course, I mean, a woman needs her chocolate, right...!?!??! Anyways, the bonus on the trip was the wild koalas and the somewhat wild kangaroos. Plus the free wine sampling and cheese tasting mmmm!! Good opportunity for some pics. All in all, very nice day, a big thumbs up from the super tourist.
And yes, the mini penguins were cuter than cute! We almost took one home! We would have taken the fat baby, named him Albert (and hoped he was a dude...otherwise, awkward!!), fed him and loved him until the end. And that would have meant me and Lena would have had to stay in Australia for good, bonus, coz imagine explaining to the customs why you're having a penguin tucked down your sleeve... Not good. Good we didn't do it I guess...
Anyways...
I didn't get a very good picture of the penguins, since you technically weren't allowed to take pics of the penguins... Bummer. But here's a coupe og pictures from the rest...
