Australia `/Day 2

On the second day, we woke up early and had breakfast in the hotel then we off to Puffing Billy & Philip Island!

First, we drop off at Puffing Billy Railway Station-Menzies Creek. We were gonna take the train to Lakeside.

Puffing Billy Railway was constructed in the early 1900s. In 1953, the line was closed because of landslide and operating losses but it was reopened again later. The people who work at the railway are volunteers.














 The whole bunch


 Me and sis


 Me and dad


 My dad went to casino yesterday and accidentally left a chip in his pocket








 The weather is very cold so we bought some hot drinks








 The train has arrive!




 Tickets!


 Me and mom








We stopped here a while because something's wrong with the steam locomotive. They remove it and fix it or something.




 The view from the train.




Our tour guide/driver (he is both) drive the coach to Lakeside to pick us up, driving is even faster than the train actually (:


Finally we reach Lakeside






Then we go for buffet lunch at Cuckoo Restaurant














My food










During our lunch there's like a band over there and he sing some kids song and the kid go over there and dance around. Songs like cuckoo and others. (sorry I forgotten >__< bad memory...)






Then the restaurant knows we are from Malaysia and one of the staff over there ask us to sing Rasa Sayang. He ask almost everybody but no one wants to sing and the music is playing... and everyone is waiting for people to sing the song D: Then one of my mom's friend sing. She tried singing but she said she can't sing, so in the end my mom sing the song.

 The restaurant also sells souvenir








After lunch we head to wine testing place.

After dinner we went to Phillip Island Penguin Parade to see penguins!

 Entrance to see the penguins!


Sorry guys! To protect the penguins, they don't allow photography, so I did not take any picture of the penguins.

I'm seriously very excited because penguin is like my second favorite animal! (⌒▽⌒)




It was very cold outside because we were at the beach side!  The penguin over there is the world's smallest penguin! So small and cute! We even saw the adorable penguins come from the sea and walk to the land to the bushes.

After looking at penguin we visit the shop.






 No pictures but this is how the penguin look like.


 Penguin plush!


 More penguin plush!


 Puppet!


 Before we leave the place, we bought hot drinks again :D


 Coffee and hot chocolate!
