    Stanley and in-between

    April 19, 2019 in Australia ⋅ ☀️ 15 °C

    Wow, what a day. Headed to Stanley, stopped at Wynyard for breakfast, have never eaten so much bacon in one helping🍳🍳went into Table Cape Geological Site to visit the Lighthouse. We walked along the coast for a couple of km’s, had to walk off breakfast!!!
    Carried on to Boat Harbour, a delightful bay with many bach’s and a beautiful beach.
    Reached Stanley, to find a quaint village with beautifully kept old buildings.
    Our goal was to go up ‘The Nut’ a 143m ‘hill’. My aim was to get the chairlift up and walk down-ha ha, being Good Friday it was closed🤪so we walked up, man was it steep it nearly killed me but we did it and then did the two km circuit around the top. So pleased we did it, amazing views. I probably won’t be able to walk tomorrow!! 13400 steps, 51 floors, 9.5km’s not bad for the day.
    Returned via Wynyard to order scallops and chips from the fish shop on the wharf and sit there to eat them as the sun set.
