First stop was to a beautiful farm that overlooked the ocean. It was absolutely dreamy there and my mom frequently repeated "when dad and I retire I would love to live somewhere like this" :)
Chocolate Factories are always a highlight. This one was very interactive and very tasteful.
For lunch we had delicious Indian food next door and then we were off again.
Next stop was at the Koala Conservation Centre. There we walked along boardwalks through eucalyptus woodlands and came face to face with the beautiful koalas.
There is a Koala in the trees just above our heads in the picture below.
The Nobbies was our next stop. There we walked along the boardwalks absorbing the costal views. It is also a place where the sea birds nest and was manic with all the noisy seagulls.
About a kilometer off shore is Seal Rock. Home to the largest colony of fur seals in Australia
Our last stop was to the Penguin Parade in time to watch as the little penguins emerged from the ocean and waddled up to their burrows. We were not allowed to take pictures of them but were able to get right up close to them. It really was such a neat experience to watch so many of them come ashore and follow up the hills.
