【澳洲墨爾本】Phillip Island – a Must-go in Australia ☆ 第一站 – 菲利普企鵝島的樹熊&企鵝
有關這次澳洲的行程安排，可以參考這裡的文章。
Pls refer to the blog post here for YY & Ga’s planning of our 8-days in Australia.
| Arriving in Melbourne ☆ 抵達墨爾本
對於YY和Ga來說，每一次的旅途都是與時間競賽，爭取拜訪最多的景點🤣
In our first trip to Australia, all YY & Ga thought about was to make the most out of the trip.
為了在第一次的澳洲之旅參觀最多的景點，我們原來的計劃，是在下飛機後直奔菲利普企鵝島🐧
We took the red-eye flight from HongKong to Melbourne, and headed straightly to Phillip Island once we got out of the airport.

最後YY和我的第一站成了這裡 – 南墨爾本市場
不過, 就如大家在上面所見, 最後我們首先去的是南墨爾本市場。
As illustrated above, at last YY & Ga decided to drop by the South Melbourne Market first.
其中一大原因, 就是YY沒能抵受美食的誘惑 (主要是生蠔🦪🦪🦪)。
One of the reasons was – YY wanted to try their fresh Australia oyster so badly loll…
不光是海鮮, 南墨爾本市場的咖啡, 面包和新鮮水果也都挺有名。
South Melbourne Market is also known for its fresh foods – from bakery, to cafe and fresh fruits, and many other choices.

在美味的生蠔過後, YY和Ga就全速自駕往菲利普島。總算在2小時後, 趕在無尾熊保育中心關門前趕到 💨
It actually took YY & Ga more than 2 hours to arrive at Phillip Island (from S. Melbourne Market). Luckily, we made it to the Koala Conservation Center before it closes at 4:30pm.

Pls refer to the ticketing website for details.
YY和Ga給大家的建議是, 如果你只打算看看無尾熊🐨和小企鵝🐧, 那單獨購買就好了。
Our suggestion – if you would only want to visit the koalas & penguins, then you probably don’t need to buy the pass.
🐨: 說了這麼久, 甚麼時候到本熊出場?
“When will you talk about me?”, says the koalas 🐨
睡覺就是”熊”生的全部
雖然澳洲以無尾熊著名, 但其實一般很少看見牠們的蹤影。
Although Australia is known for its koalas, you don’t often see them in the wild.
在保育中心以外, YY和我在澳洲就沒見到其他的無尾熊啦。所以我們還是建議大家去參觀一下。
In fact, the Koala Center was where YY & i saw the only koalas during our trip…
Koala Conservation Reserve ☆ 無尾熊保育中心

Hours: 1000 – 1630

| Our 1st Dinner in Australia ☆ 菲利普島上的簡單晚餐
在澳洲的第一餐, YY選擇了在貓途鷹(Tripadvisor)上評價不錯的 Fig & Olive Steak & Seafood Restaurant。
YY & i relied on the comments on Tripadvisor and picked Fig & Olive Steak & Seafood Restaurant for our first-ever dinner in Australia.
假如要求不太高的話, 他們家的環境和西班牙海鮮飯🥘還是很不錯的。
It was a decent and chilled place for dinner. And they served tasty seafood paella 🥘
| Phillip Island Penguins Parade ☆ 重頭戲 – 企鵝大巡遊
在去企鵝中心的路上, YY和我短暫停留在一個不知名﹑但景色遼闊的展望台。
YY & Ga dropped by an unknown lookout on our way to the Penguins Parada.
真羨慕澳洲的人, 隨便一個海灣都是那麼蔚藍﹑迷人。
Thou just a random lookout, the view from the lookout was very nice!!
從餐廳出發, 大概10分鐘的車程, YY和Ga終於到達了企鵝中心。
Penguin Parade is around 10mins driving away from the restaurant.
在飛了9個小時, 再經過2-3小時車程 – 終於到了企鵝大巡遊的時間!!!
Finally, it was PENGUIN Time 🐧🐧🐧
像上面所說, 企鵝巡遊的門票主要分3等級 – 普通 < 升級版 < 地下觀景台。
You may refer to the abovementioned for the 3 types of tickets – General < Penguin Plus < Underground Viewing.
由於在巡遊路線的距離上有區別, YY和Ga是強烈推荐大家 – 選擇位置較好的升級版或是地下觀景台門票!
Below illustrates the reason why YY & i would highly recommend everyone to get Penguin Plus/ Underground Viewing.
Illustration of the Parade Route ☆ 巡遊路線示意圖
① General vs. ② Penguins Plus/ Underground
Similarities ☆ 相同之處
both ① & ② can see boarding of penguins
☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆
不論價錢, 所有門票都能看到小企鵝登岸一刻
Difference ☆ 不同之處
② is right next to the parade route, whereas ① is far away
☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆
巡遊一旦開始, ②就在巡遊路線旁, 而①就基本上看不到
YY和Ga最後選擇了升級版門票。
FYI – YY & Ga chose Penguin Plus 🎟️
提前了差不多2個小時到達, 就是為了佔一個好位置 (YY和我也真是拼了🤣)。
In order to get a good spot to see the parade, we arrived early and waited for almost 2 hours… …
☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆
升級版門票的觀望台, 就在巡遊路線旁邊
終於小企鵝出現了 🐧🐧🐧
Finally, the little penguins arrived ~
看著它們一群一群﹑搖搖擺擺的回巢, 實在是太可愛啦!!!
The penguins are smaller than what YY & i thought, but they are absolutely CUTE!!!
稍貴的門票﹑寒風中的等待﹑9個小時的飛機, 一下子全都值得了❤️
It was definitely worth waiting and traveling for multiple hours.
