We headed out for a long day on an adventure "cruise" to Bruny Island, the southernmost island in Tasmania; 50 kilometers long and population of 550 people. There is pretty much nothing between Bruny Island and Antartica. Was a long day, nice boat, gourmet lunch on a pretty spot on the island which consisted of Bruny Island oysters (from the "Get Shucked" oyster company), cheeses, wine and fudge. Everything made on the Island. Island consists of North and South Bruny, connected by a very, very narrow strip. South Bruny is a national park with the tallest cliffs in the southern hemisphere. Incredible nature, the rocks go back thousands (millions?) of years and they have a unique type of algae which can go up to 1 meter a day! Everything felt a bit prehistoric.
