wild animals in their natural habitat...(day 2)

Yeah! The group A is back! It was a fulfilling day for all of us and we were all looking forward to share with all of you.

Firstly,we woke up at 6:30AM to have our breakfast and after the breakfast we were on our way to the Warrook Farm. There, we are able to interact with kangaroos, emus and ducks. Plus,we got to feed the animals. We also got the chance to catch the shepherd dogs in action. The 2 dogs were able to command the flock of sheep from one end to the other. It was also the first time for many of us to watch a sheep being skinned alive (just kidding, the sheep was sheared for its wool).

(Christmas came early for Adam!)

After lunch at Warrook Farm, we headed to the Koala Conservation Centre. Unfortunately, the moment we reached the centre, the rain poured heavily. It was really raining cats and dogs. We were freezing as the wind blew strongly at our faces. Luckily, 3 koalas were spotted up on the eucalypt trees. To add on to our luck, the koalas were awake. We were informed that the koalas sleep most of the time. We love the koalas because they look cute and cuddly.


We proceeded to the western tip of Phillip Island, The Nobbies and Point Grant to walk along the boardwalks and took many pictures of the silver gulls and jaw-dropping backdrop of the coastline. We were also anticipating the moment to watch the nightly crossing of the penguins. We witnessed the rafts of penguins waddling back to their burrows from the coastline. Visitors were warned strictly not to take any photographs of the penguins because they will be blinded by the flash of the cameras. Many blind penguins cannot survive in the water and were eaten up by sharks.


It was seafood dinner for all of us and that was when we officially appointed Hui Fang as our Ms. Caring. She graciously peeled prawns for the members of Group A. We also found out that Dayang is the only one in the group who is left-handed. Our Princess Diary is Farishah who is in charge of noting down details in her personal diary. Every night, Hwee Hwa, Rinna & Ms Maz will be the last to sleep because we are the Blog i/cs for Group A.




It was a sad moment tonight because our tour guide, Ms Jytte bade farewell as it was her last day with us. Goodbye Ms. Jytte (pron: Utah)! Hope to see you again!We have to sleep now because Ms Maz is fasting and has to wake up earlier than all of us. We also have to pack our luggage as we will be moving to another hotel. Tomorrow will be an enriching day as we will be going to school during September holidays!
