Well made Tasmania arrived at the right airport on the right day. The change in weather was noticeable. Rain and a cold wind. Bit like the uk. I was collected by Dave and Jane, who took me to there place, cup of tea, sort my washing out and then away to signal piont. Amazing views.

A very nice restaurant and we had a tasty lunch and a drive around Hobart to help me get my bearings. I sorted out a couple of trips. I'm going to be busy up early and long days. I was taken to Salmon Ponds. Many years ago mid 1800's, they started breeding salmon and trout. They are now in all the rivers throughput Tasmania. Whilst there saw albino trout. Wanted to show picture but as per usual I don't understand the technology.
Then we went to the rainforest. The smell of eucalyptus trees, the old trees stretching up to the sky. I saw an amazing waterfall. A brilliant day out. Another picture malfunction Carnot put up rainforest pictures.

Another day Tasman island after Able Tasman who discovered the place. Seen seals, on bottom photo, sea eagles, shy albatross and cormonts that look like little penguins. The crew of the boat where ver knowledge about the wildlife and the rock formations. See below the rocks.

Just look at this beach sandy, sheltered and so blue.

After lunch a trip to Pot Arthur. A really interesting afternoon. Such a hard life and sentenced to transportation for stealing a candle or clothes. Travelling for months and arriving at this convict site. Such harsh treatment seton such a beautiful bay.

More excitement to come. MONA tomorrow a art gallery
