How is this a Prison? its Beautiful! Geeveston to Port Arthur. Ep.41
From Cockle creek we made our way back up to Geeveston to setup camp, as we really wanted to climb the nearby ???? Mt Hartz Peak ! The following day the weather was perfect (no rain, just sunshine!) so we took off early up the mountain. The first third of the walk is along a timber boardwalk and you go past 2 beautiful lakes. The boardwalk then disappears and you start to hike up the mountain⛰. The last part is really steep and you have to scramble over rocks, so definitely need a level of fitness to complete.
We missed the Richmond area last time and wanted to go for a look, and see in particular the old bridge! Richmond, is home to the oldest working bridge in Australia! Crazy what the convicts built back in the day, and its still allowing cars???? over it.
Later that day we also visited the 'moo brew' brewery. Our friends Chris,Vee and Tilly’s had visited and told us it was a must do! For $15 per person, you get a tour around the brewery????and learn about the process, while tasting the beers throughout the tour. Don't worry, at most of these breweries Amz does most of the tastings, as Kurt mostly drives. On this occasion, the van was hitched and parked out the front. We did joke with our guide we'd sleep out the front, if we had to much to drink. ????
#Funfact: the brewery is actually owned by the same man who owns MONA. ????
At the end of the tour you also get a handful of takeaways, how good is that! [Tours only run on Friday's and you need to book online to secure a spot!] After the tour we headed off to Dunalley pub for the night. A great overnight spot before we headed to Port Arthur ⚖️the next day.
We got to the Port Arthur Historic Sites, nice and early, as our introductory walking tour????????????????♀️ was booked in for 9:30am. Plenty of parking space there for all types of vehicles, as we were still hitched with our van and had no problems finding a spot. After our walking tour, we did all the inside things and jumped on the ferry???? for our 20 minute harbour cruise. We then headed back to the van to grab lunch and grab Rusty!
Yep, thats right. You can walk around the grounds of Port Arthur with your dog????! They must be on a lead at all times and you can't go in any exhibits with them. It was great roaming the gardens and remainder of the site with Rusty. She really enjoyed it, even saying hello???????? to the resident chickens. We were quite happy with our full day at Port Arthur and headed to Nubeena RSL for the night. A great value low cost camp if your self contained. For $20 a night, you can use their toilets and showers???? while they're open, plus they give you a $10 bar credit!

Episode 1 - 4 Tasmania down under 2019
Tasmania Down under April 2019
. Hi, welcome to Part 1-4 of our Tasmania down under adventure for April 2019.
. In March 2019 my brother Tyler was Continually asking myself and my step father “Pat” to take him on a trip around Tasmania. However, a big trip like this was hard to plan due to work commitments however with a bit of luck Pat and I managed to get a bit of a break of work, so we decided to fit this short trip in to Tasmania for Tyler. I would Like to Point out, with Tyler’s permission that Tyler is diagnosed with Autism which at times you will see throughout this series, at times throughout Tyler’s life people have mistakenly thought Tyler is under the influence of some type of drugs which is clearly not the case, Unfortunately Tyler was dealt with an unfortunate card in this life. However, I assure you that Tyler has certainly seen and has enjoyed many things over his life, and we all love him dearly.
. Any Way Back to this series. The Bushell Family which include My step father “Pat “and Brother “Tyler” and I travel throughout parts of Tasmania over a 4-day period. In which we visit some amazing places.
. On this trip I originally was not going to do any videoing as I decided not to bring any of my camera gear as I was unsure how we were going to travel around Tasmania, I thought taking all my camera equipment may be too much of a hassle. However, Tyler was adamant he wanted me to do a video, so the only piece of videography equipment I had on me was my iPhone, which surprisingly did a fantastic job over the four days. The only few little things that give me a bit of trouble over the four days was the Audio and been an iPhone it only has a fairly small sensor so any slight movement and it would have to refocus which made some content a tad blurry at times. So, to avoid this I tried and told the other guys to try and keep the phone as still as possible when videoing, and the other unfortunate thing I found was when it come to uploading all my footage to my computer it for some reason uploaded my footage in 720hd format however I made shore I had my phone camera set on 1080 HD 60fps, so not sure what happened there, but I did fix it the best I could when it come to the edit stage by upscaling from 720 to 1080, which then made the video more clearer, however when you do that you still loose quality footage compared to its original footage on the iPhone, all in all, well done Apple, your phones can do a fantastic job when videoing if needed.
- For today we take a look around Hobart.
- Enjoyed some yummy food around the Taman Peninsula
- Visited some beautiful cliffs around Eagle hawk Neck. → “Tasman’s Arch” “Devils Kitchen” “Fossils Bay Blow whole”.
