Hi all,
Well, we had quite a few experiences in the last few days .
We landed in Hobart (the capital of this huge and very populated island) . Hobart has ~140000 people while in the whole island there ~480000 people . They have tons of spaces but most of them are filled with retired people that are travelling .
Hobart was nice, very quite and peaceful compare to Melbourne (well, here the truth - it was quite boring) . On Thursday We were introduced to our new "House on wheels" and started driving like crazies . Don't tell anyone but all the ausies are driving on the wrong side of the road and for some reason they think everyone should do it .
On the first day we went south of Hobart and travelled a bit in the Peninsula . On Wedensday we arrived to Freciant national park where we went to see the wineglass bay . It was wonderful but unfortunatly we forgot our camera so you'll have to count on us (imagine a bay at the form of a wine glass it's not difficult) .
The Next day we had a unique
experiance . We went to Mt. Wiliam National park (the North east corner of the island) and we were literaly - alone . the park is ~ 80 Km and we spent a day with only the kangoroos . However we had a chance to visit isulated beaches, to see wildlife and to watch the most beautiful night skies in the southern hemisphere .
On Sunday we started drivinig to Launceston . On the way we stopped by 2 waterfalls, however the way between the first and second was not sealed and a tree has falled in the middle . Only after Elad lifted it up (and Chen drove the monstores vechile) we were able to pass through .
On Monday we arrived to Cradle mountain . The weather was awful . but we didn't give up, and on Tuesday we started climbing to it's top . The weather was changing in minutes from nice ans sunny to snow (mixed with rain) . we had a very good walk yesterday but we also manged to forget the camera so you'll have to trust us (imagine high mountain, muddy soil, and a very tough climb) .
That's for
now, we started heading south, we plan to visit brunie island .
Penguins - Here we come !!!
