Finally going real camping....


We packed and headed out of Hadspen mid morning and spent over an hour looking for the hoses to finish putting in our Twine shower system but we got them and after the first shower I will know that the hour was worth it. We headed up the scenic route through Lilydale and into Scotsdale for lunch. Marcus had suggested the cafe in town and a visit to the Eco Forestry centre. We did both and had a great time doing so.
We then continued on our scenic path through Bridport and onto Gladstone. This would be the last chance of picking up fuel and supplies for a few days. Onto camp we pushed. We have found that here in Tasmania the roads and signage are fantastic we have a basic road map a few brochures and 2 camping/national parks books and are finding everything with ease and finding our camping area was just the same.
We cruised into Mt William National park and had a little look at all the camping options and even headed out to Mussleroe to have a look at the camping there but found that the first spot we came into was by far the best. We are now camped under beautiful trees with wallabies hopping past and the ocean waves crashing as the back ground noise.
We set up camp, had dinner a stroll down the beach and are settling in for a quiet first night really camping in the bush.
Us2martins really camping in Tassie.
