Along eastern Tasmania to Port Arthur

A bit of rambling along the eastern coast of Tasmania: Mt William National Park and Stumpy's Bay, then south to Wineglass Bay and onto the Tasman peninsula to our first night in Port Arthur.

So unusual to see bushland without any human artifacts.   We're looking towards Stumpys Bay here.
