Phillip Island: Koala Conservation Centre

Last March I went to Melbourne with 6 of my friends. It wasn’t until halfway of our stay that we were finally complete. We waited for Elisa to arrive before we went touring. Our first stop was Phillip Island about 2 hours away from Melbourne.

 
My friend Deb rented a van and one of her friend’s friend volunteered to drive us around. Without Wayne’s awesome driving skills we wouldn’t have seen so many things in a span of two days. An alternative to renting a car is to take a bus tour which costs so much more.

The next best thing to going to a zoo is going to the Koala Conservation Centre where we can see koalas at their natural habitat.

Koalas are so adorable probably because they get so much sleep!

That’s it. We saw four koalas and left. Was it worth it? Ummm….if you’re already in the area then yes.
