On Bruny again


It's quite a while since I was last on Bruny Island. There's lots to  see and do,and these days a lot more people are seeing and doing them. It was a Friday morning, outside the school holidays, and yet my car was only just able to squeeze into the last available space on the ferry. And ferries were running every half hour.








We drove down to Adventure Bay, and walked the Fluted Cape track, one I'd never embarked on before. It's a very scenic two to three hour circuit, and you get to peer down over some very high cliffs.






























You pass the ruins of several old whaling stations along the coast here. Plus one of the most unsightly monuments you could hope to meet. It commemorates the visit to Adventure Bay in 1777 by Captain Cook during his second big voyage.
