One of the places we were most excited to show my mom and grandparents was Phillip Island. We have been a couple of times now, and love that it's a short enough drive from the city to take visitors on a day trip. Because everyone who visits Australia must feed a kangaroo, we headed to Phillip Island Wildlife Park first. It's pretty much the best deal ever: you get entrance and a bag of food for $17. In comparison, the Melbourne Zoo is something like $30 and you don't get to feed anything. So, wildlife park for the win. First we hung out with some Wallabies.
My mom feeding her first wallaby!
On this trip it occurred to me that these guys resemble overgrown rats. I love them anyway.
My grandpa is a wallaby whisperer. They were obsessed with him!
Those stupid ducks in the background kept trying to steal the food from the kangaroos.
Epic kangaroo selfies.
Mom and her new best friend!
Next we headed to the Nobbies. I'm sure I've shared similar pictures in my past Phillip Island posts, but this scenery never gets old so here are some more:
We left the Nobbies and continued our drive down a road that winds through a bunch of brush and happily stumbled upon a wallaby drinking from a puddle on the road! It was fun for our guests to see one in the wild. Contrary to popular belief, kangaroos and wallabies aren't just hopping around all over. You have to go quite a ways out of the city to spot one, and they're really only active in the late afternoon.
We drove by this beautiful beach:
If this isn't paradise I don't know what is.
Great photos! I love the kangaroo shots.
ReplyDeleteKangaroo selfies are the best kind of selfies!
DeleteI admit, I have not been on this web page in a long time... however it was another joy to see It is such an important topic and ignored by so many, even professionals. I thank you to help making people more aware of possible issues. Phillip Island Tour
