Hobart to Port Arthur

We walked a couple of blocks from our hotel to take in the Saturday morning market. There were plenty of food trucks, local liquor stalls, wooden & glass handicrafts, & clothing stalls, lined up. It was very busy with cruise ship passengers. We rented a car to drive to Port Arthur on the Tasmanian Peninsula. We’re in an AirBnB for a couple of nights to explore this area. Our Toyota Camry hybrid is a little annoying, because not only is the steering wheel on the wrong side, but the wiper blade controls & signals are reversed. Switching lanes & turning were met with a few honking horns & stares! We arrived at our place without incident, where we were greeted by our friendly host Cathy, looking forward to cooking our dinner on the barby! Before dinner we drove 4 minutes to one of the most beautiful beaches we’ve seen on our trip, so far, & walked it from one end to the other. Even on a Saturday, the beach was nearly deserted.Read more
