Last Days

We travelled in a big circle back to Melbourne. One night we stayed at the sports ground in Loch. There were a lot of people exercising and walking their dogs. I played with a little boy who was digging up worms. Loch has a suspension bridge. The first time, I was scared because it was moving but I went over it about 10 times.

We drove to Wilson's Promontory. That is as far south as you can go on the mainland. It was cold and wet but at Squeaky Beach I went Pokemon hunting. A lot of people talked to me about Pokemon.

Another night we stayed near Foster at a creek. There were about 20 campers there. One was a Wicked van with graffiti all over it.We went in to Angel Falls. They were good because it as been raining. We were going to stop overnight in Bunyip but Nana was tired so we stopped in a car park at Warragul. On the way today, we drove in to Bunyip. The only bunyip we saw was on a sign. We are back at Suzy's now and tomorrow I will fly home.

I am getting brave

I was a bit nervous

I am at Agnes Falls,

What a lovely waterfall

The old ones are : Eevee, Pidgey, Koffing, Caterpie, Jigglypuff and Weedle.





I also saw a Pokemon that is legendary but I didn't catch it.

Mew!

Cory said that Mew isn't in Pokemon Go but I saw it

The next day at Squeaky Beach I only found ones I already had, including Weedle.

Phillip Island - Churchill Island Farm

On Saturday, we went to Churchill Island Heritage Farm by crossing the bridge to Churchill island. We had a big day and this is how it started. First we got ready and walked to were we see cows getting milked by a farmer and then told what kind of milk it it is and then I milked the cow by softly squishing the udder of the cow. Then we went and saw a sheep get shorn and the farmer almost wrestled it to shear it. After he had shorn it I felt the wool and it was soft. Then we went and saw a sheep dog round up sheep.We watched a girl cracking different whips.

Phillip Island - the Penguin Parade

There is a colony of Little Penguins on Phillip Island. Every night thousands of penguins come out of the ocean. They work hard to get out of the water because the waves push them forward then drag them back into the sea. They waddle up the beach. Nana thinks that it is interesting the way they sometimes walk up the beach a bit and then run back into the water. Some of them have chicks waiting in their burrow. Some of them wait outside the burrows and watch every adult go past until their parents arrive. Some of the penguins have burrows a long way from the beach and take a long time to get there.Baby chicks are dark blue and get darker as they grow.

look at all the penguin

Look at the seals

I am at the nobbies 

I am at the sea

I am ready to see penguins

Look a me with piplop

Exploring Melbourne

Today we travelled by train to the city, then on a tour bus and then on a tram to the zoo.

This is the Flinders Street station. It is huge.

We bought lunch and some things at the Victoria Market.

This is an African animal like a big ant-eater, it is a peccary

This is a giant tortoise. It might be hundreds of years old.

Our tickets were for two days so we went back into the city today. This time we went by tram so Nana didn't have to walk up all the steps at the station. We went to the 88th floor of the Eureka Tower.It is the tallest building in Melbourne.The Eureka Tower has a panel of gold for the gold rush and a strip of red for the blood spilled at the Eureka Stockade.The blue and white are the colours of the Eureka flag.

We went into Saint Paul's Cathedral,

This is a view of Melbourne from inside the Eureka Tower.

This is the Eureka Tower outside view,
You can just see the gold panel and red strip.

This is a tower like a net over a theatre.

Melbourne

We arrived in Melbourne yesterday. We are staying with Mum's cousin Suzy. She took us for a drive to show us the Brighton Bathing Boxes. It was so windy that the birds were being blown backwards.Suzy had a triathlon today and had to get up at 4 o'clock. The swimming part was cancelled because it was so windy.

 It is so windy that the seagulls are actually flying backwards

This is a view of all the beach boxes

This is my favorite beach box

Today we went to Luna Park then we went for a drive and met Mum's cousin Michelle. At Luna Park, I had a ticket for unlimited rides.

This is the entrance of Luna Park

This is the place were you get tickets and it says admit one

I am next to a sign saying, Please queue safely. Queue jumpers will get torn in half and eaten by demons

This is some of the famous Luna Park

I am in a bumper car

They are very fast

This is a roller coaster called the silly serpent 

It goes at about 50 kilometers an hour 

I am getting on the Coney Tower
