Whilst here in Australia we have been so very lucky to enjoy a number of memorable moments - it seems that each new day brings a new experience whether it's a bird that we haven't seen before, a flower that is new to us, an amazing sunrise, a walk alongside the vast ocean....big or small, the experiences have all been remarkable and life-changing. And, they continue.......
Our final night in Strahan we took a short road trip out to Ocean Beach, at 30km, the longest beach in Tasmania but the wild waters are not safe to swim in. We headed out at around 7pm our plan to have a picnic supper overlooking the ocean before dusk when, we were told, you can observe the marvellous sunsets and watch the migratory muttonbirds roost.
We took a brief walk on the beach but it was very windy (and a tad chilly!), so we retu
rned to the car where we had our picnic supper and, later true enough we watched the sun se
tting magnificently and then at around 9pm, muttonbirds came from all directions returning to their nests in the sand dunes - it was a sight we will remember for a long time - truly speci
al.
