TUESDAY 14TH - ST VALENTINES DAY AND BARB'S BIRTHDAY


This morning seemed a bit cool and it was. When I checked the car at 8:00am, it was 5 degrees but the good news is that the wind has dropped and the temperature reached 22 degrees during the day.

 

En route to Burnie this morning, we visited the Guide Falls. Very pleasant and only a short walk. After topping up the fuel and water tanks and swapping the two empty gas bottles we somehow found ourselves with, we visited the very well set up visitors centre in Burnie. After lunch, we headed west to where we are now camped at the Black River Campground in one of its many isolated sites. The Black River is just a short stroll through the scrub away and we have a view of the Stanley Nut across the water.

 

Not far east of here is the Rocky Cape National Park – very scenic and rugged coastline. Note how calm the water is, very different to the last few days. Fortunately the good weather is predicted to continue as we head for the north western tip of the State and the rugged western coast.

 

Happy Birthday Barb.
