Cowes is the main town over on Phillip Island and is on the north of the island overlooking Western Port Bay. Down on the waterfront restaurants and cafes were packed with diners after the ANZAC services.

Phillip Island’s Grand Prix Circuit was open today and had a nice display of cars and motorbikes that have raced the circuit over the years.

A club motorbike event was on today so we got to see some action.

The Go Karts operate alongside the track and were very popular.

Wilsons Promontory National Park in Victoria is the southern most part of the Australian mainland. We visited the day after ANZAC day and the campground was completely full. I can’t tell you how many tents and campers, with a few caravans, were at Tidal River but I imagine there would have to be 500 or so sites and mostly with families around them. Very busy! Somehow I managed not to take a photo with the crowds in!

We are staying in Korumburra and just had time for a visit to Coal Creek Park and Museum. It is a recreated coal mining village with exhibits from 1870 through to the 1920s.

The weather has been kind to us and we have managed to get out and about between the showers. Hopefully it will clear up in the next day or so.
