Finally found some time to upload the pictures I took in French Island..

French Island is this place bigger than Philip Island but has only 80 plus people living there. Me Rachel Shuyan and Wong Yuen decided to go there for a lil adventure of our own. The hunt for cute animals and cycling in dirt tracks ( they aren't the same dirt tracks as we have in Singapore ).

We made our way there by taking a cab to Southern Cross Station and took a train to end. I can't remember the name of the station but it's at the end and the jetty is there.



We finally made it to the station and decided to take a toilet break before buying our tickets to take the ferry to French Island. The sky in Melbourne is just amazing. Thank god i'm a typical tourist who likes to take pictures. We alighted at Stony Point Station =) And we made our way to the jetty.



This is the ferry we took. George Bass.



And we're finally here! French Island.. This is the information slash bicycle kiosk. They only have about 20 bikes there so it's obvious that not many people choose to cycle there. We didn't realise it until we..



CYCLED!! I must say it was quite a tough road (the sand gets deeper).. Good thing there was 2 strong guys and 2 determined gals there.. =)



So we peddled and went past Nature



more Nature...



After cycling for more than 2 hrs.. We finally saw the animals we were looking for! Most of the animals are roaming around freely without any barriers. Except for the pig.. he had electric wires surrounding him.. they had to do it because he will mess things up and might charge at people. The chickens and ducks were following us around the place. Especially when Alison ( the girl who was showing us around ) was with us. Think they're expecting her to feed them or something..



Well it's obvious that Koala bears are the cutest animals there. That's why I took so many photos of them. We saw so many of them there that I keep snapping.. They're just so cute! Alison had to remind me to keep away from them because their claws are so sharp that it can rip my flesh off!

This picture has a lil baby on top of the parent.. The Koalas are very territorial.. so you can see at most 1 or 2 adult Koala on top of a tree with their baby ( if they have one )



And then these are the other animals we saw... =) The colourful bird.. Feret... a beautiful pony.. and the pig! which i mentioned earlier



And these are the photos I took there. Didn't manage to take the hut that we went to and had our branch. becoz i forgot to.. we had a memorable and tiring trip at French Island! And headed back to catch the ferry back to mainland =)
