Well hello again,
Its been a little while since an update, and i thought i’d talk about my weekend at Phillip Island.
Stace and I decided to take a couple of days off and head down to Phillip Island as neither of us had been before. It was a short drive, only about 2 hours to get there and with the good weather we had it turned out to be a pleasant drive.
We stayed at the Silverwater Resort which was a pretty nice place with plenty of rooms, pool/spa/sauna, restaurant, billiards table and a bar. Pretty much everything you would need. Rooms included a full kitchen and fridge.
There are a few things to do while in Phillip Island including a couple of different nature tours. The one we decided to visit was the Penguin Parade which has you see the penguins at sunset as they leave the ocean and make their way across the beach. It’s a very unique scene, and was something i’ll remember for sure. Well worth checking out if you ever make it to Phillip Island. Only costs $20.
Aside from the penguins, we checked out a few restaurants and walked around the main street in Cowes a little bit. Seems like a nice relaxed town, although phone reception was lacking with no 3G signal.
In other news, Beijing on Xbox 360 has still been getting plenty of play time. After completing olympic games mode, we have moved onto breaking world records, and trying to collect the achievements, which are no easy feat! Giving the game more replay time, as achievement often does!
