A Sampler Tour of Tasmania. Day 20

My final day on Tassie started with some glorious if very chilly weather. I ended up staying warm in the swag for a bit longer than usual but once the sun was up the day started warming up nicely. Then it was time to cook breakfast and pack up camp. 


I was on the road before 08:00. I headed west to Liffey Falls, the road was a little rough and twisty but it was well worth it. The falls are only 20 mins or so walk from the car park and there are a few little cascades before the actual falls making it a very pleasant stroll. 


After that I headed north to Delorane before heading west to Mole Creek Caves. I visited two caves - The Cathedral and King Solomons Cave both smaller than a lot of other caves I've visited but well worth the look. There were bonus glow worms in the Cathedral cave tour. 


After that it was into Delorane for a late lunch and the venison pie was quite good. Then north towards Devonport and the ferry. On the way I wasted some time visiting the beaches at Port Sorell and Hawley Beach and then waited for the ferry to board. 


It was the Spirit of Tasmania I this time not II but I ended up in the same parking garage in the bowels of the ship. 


I had their buffet dinner and it wasn't too bad, however after a night of sitting in their Ocean Recliners my bum is pretty numb. The trip was calm and uneventful, now time for the long drive home.
