Phillip Island Penguin Parade
We spent an extra night in Melbourne just to do this day trip, which we missed the first time we were here.

We had just a brief two night stop in Melbourne this time, just enough time to do the Phillip Island Penguin Parade.
We were intrigued — and just a little freaked out — by the flying foxes (giant bats) near our hotel and sought them out on our last day.
The Sea Life Aquarium has all kinds of cool underwater critters, from fish that we’ve seen snorkeling to sharks that I’m happy we haven’t seen snorkeling to rays and seahorses.
The Great Ocean Road was a must-see for us near Melbourne. It did not disappoint!
We expected to like Melbourne a lot and we did. It’s a great city for wandering and exploring, which we did a lot of during our 6 days there.
