Adventures on Bruny Island

Two Tree Point at Resolution Creek, where Captain James Cook replenished his water supply when his ship pulled in here in 1777. Captain Bligh named the creek in 1788 when he visited in his ship the Bounty.

Adventure Bay

Reflections on Captain Cook's Creek

Bounty washed up in the bay.

A very tame bird.

The wonderful old lighthouse which is undergoing a much needed facelift.

We enjoyed a day of lovely rain after the drought we had to persevere for months.

A couple of old trucks we came upon while exploring the island.

Other assorted machinery from times gone by.

Ahh, the country life for me.

Boat sheds on the river

The Bridgewater bridge that wouldn't open to let us through due to the high winds that we were experiencing.

A stately home on the banks at Granton

The Bowen Bridge which was so low it was a close call going under. (the mast had already been lowered a bit so we could get through)

Nystar Zinc works us a very ugly site unless you photograph it at night or isolate certain interesting parts and enhance.

Back towards the city.

Windsurfer zipping along at Lindisfarne.

Saturday, sail race day on the river.

Caught up with the Lady Nelson where the bearded wonder was crewing, taking out the tourists on a trip down the Derwent in the opposite direction to our trip.

Ahh, there he is... up the mast...as usual.
