Day 10.
Today was a early start to the day 07 00 departing Hobart for an hour
drive to Triabunna for our boat ride around Maria Is.
Our first stop was Darlington where the only buildings are on the island.
It was first a convict settlement then a tourist location back to a convict
Settlement and finished as a cement factory before it was taken back
by the government as a national park.
Then we travel past Cape Boulanger, Fossil Bay, The Blow Hole to Mistaken Cape
Then it got to rough so we turned around and went back to the east side of the island
to Shoal Bay where we had lunch with a choice of smoked salmon,cheese Selection of meats
and salads.
It was then across Booming Bay to Return Point our next stop was Painted Cliffs
back to Darlington where we walked around what is left of the settlement and the wild life.
