Leaving Tasmania....

This is a beautiful island. Both Jayne and I are thrilled that we have been able to see a good deal of it including the rugged West Coast. Most folk we have spoken to tend to leave that side of the island out of the equation, and if you consider the roads you would understand why!

The highlights for Jayne and I were;

The trip over the ditch!

Then;

Cradle Mountain and the Dove Lake Walk.

Strahan and the Cruise up the Gordon.

The food and wine in Hobart and Louisa's Walk. 

 Bicheno itself and The Devils in the Dark Tour, Coles Bay and Wineglass Bay. We did the Penguins Tour last night but it was run by a bunch of local morons so it was a waste of time! I know that sounds harsh but seriously it was BAD. We felt it was a waste of time and money.

Seahorse World at Beauty Point (we did this on the way back to Devonport today,fantastic, see gallery)

We are now back in Devonport and on the Spirit at 7am in the morning. (Thank you God. We were able to get an ensuite site! Its been so busy in Tassie that the ensuite sites were all opened up as shared bathrooms...guys and gals. Not used to sharing bathrooms with BOYS so that has been somewhat challenging.)  

We are both excited about getting back to the mainland and to continue our adventure 'round Oz.
