So the second half of my trip to Australia involved a small adventure on a BIG boat to a little place called Tasmania. Justin and I packed a rental car full of camping gear, food, and wine... and headed off.
Tasmania has a little bit of everything... sometimes it is dry and bare, sometimes like a rain forest... but my favorite was the beautiful tropical beaches... which of course we swam in... in fact, if there was a body of water... we were in it.
After a straight uphill hike up and then straight down to the beach known as "wineglass bay"... we were so glad we brought a bottle of wine... ha!
Lake St. Clair was so beautiful... there wasn't a dock... but you know what i was thinking when i jumped in... wow it was cold- but not for long.
The waterfalls were amazing... and we had trouble staying on the given path...
Our campsites... were also really fun and we met some interesting people... after four days camping we were super excited to have a site with power... movie night for us!!
at the end of the nine days... we were both dying for a real bed, a warm shower with soap, and some massage therapy... so exhausted, sunburned, and pleased with ourselves for making it through... we headed back on the spirit of tasmania and headed back to melbourne.
local Tasmanian beer.... too much fun...
stay tuned for the "highlights" entry... :)
