Farewell King Island

Greetings dear reader from Tocumwal. A slight deviation from the original plan. Yesterday we explored King Island - a place of great scenery, horse racing, surfing, golf, fishing, walking, agriculture, good food and shipwrecks. The island is 64km long and 27km wide - less tropical but with 1400 people more populous than Flinders Island. We got up close and personal with some lighthouses and enjoyed walks along the expansive and isolated beaches. A unique insight into island life.

This morning in good weather we completed our Bass Strait second crossing! Woohoo!

And 2.5 hours here we are in Tocumwal. The weather will decide when we take off for Wollongong. Insha'allah tomorrow, but we'll see!

What a fabulous adventure. You certainly get a 'birds eye' view of our fabulous land flying over it. I loved the photo slideshow too. Look forward to your next adventure and having the pleasure of sharing it with you both. Warmest wishes, Marea Huggins
