Back to the present, back to about 10 days ago when I went with a bold Australian company Philipp island, alas, not to do a "survey" (a word that can not write .. . like many others, and begin not to say that just open a dictionary or type somewhere) of the circuit on which to run the bike, but to go see the "famous" penguins of Philip Island! And I would add: and that ass! ...
The journey by car takes about 2 hours, times when I seemed to take a dip in the distant past of the elementary school trips, those in which we left with bags full of sandwiches, sweets, and various junk. From time immemorial the concept of travel I was very intrigued (not "travel" mentality that should be expressed during the most "dramatic", or rather progressive, the songs tamarri disco), the idea of \u200b\u200bmoving toward something, the 'through various landscapes, discovering how some scenes are strikingly similar to those already seen in the area of \u200b\u200bMonferrato (without background music, however, the mangy-based mosquito zzzzzz).
Anyway, the trip runs faster, by dint to swallow species Ritz-flavored barbecue sauce, chips of all kinds as possible and last but not mushy at the bottom of caramellone fruity ... The shocking thing was seeing my Australian friends with all these things together, yuck!
Just arrived in the tourist center of the Penguins, we are greeted by a warm-penguin mascot and a frosty cold ice! Ahhhh, luckily I had brought along a shirt ... Cotton .... the place is teeming with tourists from all over the world, particularly Asian and Middle Eastern, some wrapped in layers and layers of clothes and jackets, some equipped with blankets and pillows ...
As if the idea of \u200b\u200bseeing the penguins do not befit me that much, Soon after he entered (and the beauty of having paid $ 20 cents and 40 cents ... ... forty thieves) find that the penguins really are MINIpinguini the size of a bottle of water stronghold.
We sit on the sidelines of the species, because every evening, around 8 to 9 penguins return to sea after having caught and go to sleep / eat in their dens near the beach in holes dug in hills of the island.
initially did not believe that the penguins go into those holes, those holes were too small! ... unfortunately I had to think again after you have wagered with Ben and have lost badly, in fact we look at who we asked said: "Of course stupid italian" italian haha \u200b\u200bok did not say stupid, but it was what will surely crossed my mind at that time.
Past minutes, an hour passes, and those damn penguins are not seen, in the meantime, the cold is rising, and Rob (a friend of Ben) with his colorful shirt begins to take on the typical position of the penguin or better Polaretti dolfin freshly baked from the freezer!
Finalemnte get these little black creatures, from the sidelines and feel great howl "ohhh" as if people had seen a statue of the Virgin Mary shed tears ... in fact the only thing you see flocks of these creatures are black, walking slowly to the hills ...
After witnessing the landing of Philipp island, second only to that in Normandy, apparently, you can also see the return home of our brave men and animals blacks least in this case I need a little 'let go, in fact seen a few centimeters are really cute, love affairs, many small bottles of coca cola that move in a funny way and embarrassed, I can not hide the fact that those animals in those moments made me smile so sweet and natural, absorbing all hysteria derived from the freezing cold island.
finished the show is now a hot chocolate, for defrosting the joints, and to stay on with the trip "Healthy" that had brought us to the island.
tomorrow and reflecting on what hangs in my head ... hehe what a mess!
