Another Visit to Bruny Island
On our first visit to Bruny Island, we only just got the the southern part of the island. This, naturally, demands a second visit to see the parts we missed the first time. To give you an idea of the changeability and locality of weather here, you can see to the west of us that there is a rainstorm on the mainland. Meanwhile, there's no rain where we are standing.

Mount Wellington
When last we climbed (in our car, we're not silly!) to the top of Mount Wellington, it was winter and we were greeted by clouds and a brief snow squall. This time was entirely different: it was summer and we were greeted by clouds and a brief snow squall. See? Entirely different.

Adventure Bay
Adventure Bay is on the north shore of the southern part of Bruny island, just south of the neck that joins the two parts. It is a beautiful and historic part of the island.
Truganini Point
Bruny Island is divided into two parts connected by a long thin strip of land. On the northern end of the neck, as it is called, is Truganini Point. There is a lookout on the highest point here that is about 300,000,000 steps up from the platform from which these photos were taken. Not being in the mood for complete exhaustion before lunch, I did not climb the stairs to top.

Dennes Point, Bruny Island
Dennes Point is at the northern end of North Bruny Island. Standing here and looking over the water is to look back at mainland Tasmania.
