A Sampler Tour of Tasmania. Day 12

The day started fine with blue skies and no wind, so I slept in a little as there was no need to get everything packed up quickly, this also included a leisurely Brekky. 


I then visited a few other parts of Bruny Island that I had yet to get to and ended up in Advenure Bay having a curried scallop pie for morning tea. It was excellent. Then I started to drive back to the ferry to head back to the main island and to make a detour into a Jaycar store in Hobart to get a replacement inverter so that I could charge my camera batteries. The GPS app on my iPhone handled this well and then got me out the other side of Hobart and heading toward Port Arthur. In Sorel I stopped for a pie and to refuel the car before continuing on. 
I stopped off to look at the Tessellated pavement at Eaglehawk Neck and then Tasman's Arch and a couple of blowholes but the swell was so weak today that there was hardly a splash at all.




 I had a quick look at the Visitor Centre at Port Arthur and will head back tomorrow for a few hours wandering around. I then checked in at the Port Arthur Caravan park and set up camp, before having a nice warm shower and doing my washing and settling in for a relaxing evening. 


The weather today had been the best of my trip with the car thermometer saying it got up to 24 degrees with hardly any wind.
