TUESDAY 28TH - FREYCINET


Last night, we had a late visit from one of our neighbours to alert us to some quolls running around the camp ground. The photo is not that great but the spots are clearly visible.

 
This morning, we left our idyllic campsite beside the South Esk River and travelled all of about 100klms to the Freycinet National Park where we are now camped in a National Park Campground with power and water! What is the world coming to?

 
Like Cradle Mountain, this is a very popular tourist area and the amenities reflect its popularity.



Unfortunately we have 20 knot winds today although the temperature got as high as 25 degrees. Perhaps that explains the cloud formations clinging to the top of the higher peaks in an otherwise clear blue sky.

 
There are some entertaining rock formations around here.


We did all the short walks this afternoon. Tomorrow we will do the longer Wineglass Bay walk. There is a sign that says that the car park is very busy. Hopefully we will find somewhere to park.

Coming through Bicheno today, we stopped at the local fresh fish outlet and organised dinner – oysters and perch.
