Week 2 Round Up: Crazy rotating apple things!

Sorry for the late round up guys, we have been in a no reception area for the last few days in Tassie!

Km Travelled: about 1100km on the road and across the Bass Strait! In total about 2800km.

Highlights: Beaches at Wilson's Promontory; Mornington Peninsula chocolate shop!; Victor and Frankie in Melbourne (there will be a round 2!); the beautiful lakes in Tassie; hippies in Deloraine; free hot showers in Devonport (booyay kasha); and the awesome hospitality of other travelers (Gary and Renata offered their freshly caught trout to us)

Low Points: wintery and rainy weather in Tassie making it so so miserable when setting up - where did summer go?; moving camp at 11pm at Lake Barrington because of some dero teenage drunks invading our area.

Roadkill count (as requested): nil. Have seen plenty of little (alive) echidnas!


I leave you with a photo of one of those crazy spinning apple things for play equipment in parks. these things are obviously too dangerous for NSW kids but not for Vic kids at Wilson's Prom. I had the biggest headspin after that...

  1. I've had heaps of close calls but none yet. What are the odds for the type of animal to be hit first?
    In Tassie, there are wallabies, possums, echidnas, wombats and platypus as the likely candidates.
