Day 4 of our trip
Wherein we went to Phillip Island, which is apparently southeast of Melbourne. We also saw penguins, but unfortunately photography is not allowed within the penguin sanctuary.

On the way we met some of the locals. They were a bit too friendly.
Still on the way. This picture was taken quite close to the rock itself.

You can't see it from this photo, but those white misty bits drifting over the dark sand are actually dust clouds kicked up by the strong winds.

Forrest Caves. These are natural caves formed by erosion. We were fortunate enough to get there when the tide was out - otherwise it would be impossible to get in.

We had lunch at this great Italian restaurant in Cowes. Even though it was one of the few eating places open because we got there late, the food was very good.
The main street of Cowes. Very picturesque.

Flowers spotted on the way to Pyramid Rock. Figured Mother, being a botanical nut, would appreciate this picture.
