We stopped at Chocolate HEAVEN - Who needs Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner when there's Panny's Chocolate Factory?!? All you can eat samples! It was very interactive, there was several different interactive chocolate machines you could operate. I decided to buy some dark banana cremes and a dark roasted almond bar...my tummy was not so great on the way out, as I'm sure you can imagine, but it was entirely worth it!!!

Phillip Island - Famous Penguin Parade
So I'm going to start from the end of our day at Phillip Island with the Penguin Parade and then work my way to the beginning of the day. THE PENGUIN PARADE was awesome! I took a day tour bus to the island to see what all the fuss was about, and it was worth it of course :) The Penguins fish in the sea all day and then come ashore at sundown (they are safer from predators under the cover of night) and waddle from the beach to their burrows in the hills behind us. We're NOT allowed any type of photos or film when watching the parade but I found a (naughty foreigners tisk tisk) clip from youtube that you can watch http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dFO_vCEHQUs ENJOY!!!
Our tour guide stopped at a secret penguin spot before we saw the parade :) These guys look pretty chubby, so we think they got lots of fishes already! How cute are they??? It is known, that they tend to get to be about a foot tall and can weigh up to 2lbs.
This is a lookout point from a place called the Nobbies, on Phillip Island - gorgeous!
Pyramid Rock - It was FREEZING cold and windy...but fun all around!
