Cloudy Bay, Bruny Island, Tasmania.

Tasmania, which is an island, does have islands.  Bruny Island is but one down south.  Beautiful scenery, lovely beachs and many walks can be done. 

Many people live on Bruny Island and catch the ferry across to Kettering each day and home again in the evening if they work on Mainland Tasmania.  However, there are many crossings during the day.  There is a north and south island, the south island being hilly.

Years ago whaling was the industry down there, today they have beautiful fresh oysters, farming and tourism.  Also a National park, lots of beautiful birds and so on.  The building is a toilet.

I'm showing photos of Cloudy Bay which is below Cockle Creek, see map.

Katherine in the Northern Territory of Australia is a sweet town in the outback.  The town is next to the Katherine River 320km South of Darwin at the top of Australia.  The town is known as when the outback meets the tropics.

The first people to live there were of course the Aboriginals, and more history is here.

There are still Aboriginals there, some live near the town.  Each time we have stayed in Katherine I've seen the Native people sitting on a small bank with a cooked chicken they bought from the shop, the chicken sitting in the sun and that's for hours, then they eat it without ill effect.  

In the winters when we have been there it can be hot weather and cooler nights.  The town is kept clean, and the river area also. 

In one area of the Katherine River is sand and shady trees but the people don't swim because you just might happen to see a crocodile, also you have to look where you are treading due to same on land.
