The peninsula wasn't that exciting, but the penguin reserve was pretty good. A welcome improvement on the Phillip Island fairy penguin fiasco. We hiked along the bluffs overlooking the sea and watched the penguins come in. Then walked through a series of trenches that let you get within meters of the birds. They're really quite remarkable - the third largest penguin in the world with a bright yellow stripe around their heads - their behavior is also quite personable, it's easy to imagine you know what they're thinking.

Went out for a bite and a beer and met up with a group of student teachers that were also on the penguin tour (from Detroit). I went out with them and went to a few bars before deciding to head home. Much to my unhappy surprise when I went to set the alarm for my early morning bus I found it was four AM!
