The sun is just setting at 8:20 tonight in this national park not far from Devonport where we landed on the ferry last night. We didn’t do a lot today. We bought groceries this morning, quite a lot of them as we had tried to empty our refridgerator before crossing to Tasmania. Then we drove to this park which is on a large bay across from the small town of Port Sorell. The bay is calm and they use it for water skiing. Signs on the beach indicate where the ski area is and that you can only water ski between 8 am and 8 pm, and in a counter-clockwise direction. Since there was no one here skiing today that seems over-regulation, but there must be times when it is much more busy.
The temperature is cool, just over 18 °C today, and with a fairly strong breeze. It is certainly much different than the high temperatures which we experienced just two weeks ago in South Australia. We were going to go swimming but decided against it as it seemed a bit chilly in the wind.
