The Koala Conservation Park on Phillips Island (just 1.5 hours outside Melbourne) was fantastic... loads of koalas sleeping in the trees, and one was out and about, and not afraid of us being close to him. Also at the park were kangaroos and some fantastic birds enjoying the tasty eucalyptus and ground cover. Too bad koalas don't want to cuddle... they look so snuggly! -- Later that day we watched the Penguin Parade -- the fairy penguins march nightly from the beach up to their little huts in the sand. It was fantastic! And before we left, we watched "March of the Penguins" in our hotel room, which made it even more exciting.
