    Bye to Snug Beach…...

    Woke to bright sun and warmth after a cool 24 hours. First stop today Bonorong Wildlife Park, on the way to Scamander, our second campsite for the next two nights.

    We’ve driven from the south of the island to the east coast. Possibly our longest drive of the trip, on virtually empty roads.

    The wildlife park is a sanctuary for injured and rescued animals, there for the animal’s benefit not ours. Some inmates are now in breeding programmes, keeping their endangered species alive.

    A lovely couple of hours seeing Tassie devils, echidnas, birds of all plumage and shriek levels, and feeding the ‘roos and wallabies*. Oh and one bunny!
    My idea of heaven.

    * roo / wallaby slobber comes as standard!
