Again I failed to wake up for the sunrise. Maybe I should just admit defeat and stop troubling my sleep with useless alarms. Another cloudy day but atleast it cleared up later on in the day. We ran out of gas and food so we packed camp after breakfast and drove to the nearest town, Bicheno, and bought new supplies. From there we drove back to Freycinet National Park where Stefano took a scenic flight and I waited. We then drove to Coles Bay and hired a camp site ($13). Went for another swim but again it was freezing, but a least this time there was a shower to wash off in. Spent the arvo relaxing on the beach.
The next day we woke at 8 so we would have the whole day to walk to Wineglass Bay. The track unfortunately only starts about 5 km's away from where our campsite is and because our tent was already set up we had to walk this. The trek itself to Wineglass Bay only took 1.5 hours but coming back we decided on the longer route and by the end, with our extra 10km, we were truly buggered. As for Wineglass Bay itself it was stunning. Stefano said that it was meant to be one of the top 5 most beautfiul beaches in the world and I would not argue with him.
Arrived back at camp around 4 and had a quick shower and then into our tent for a powernap. A quick dinner of beans and beef patties on bread and we a ready for bed.
I realize half of these posts are a few days late but there is no phone reception so hey, what can you do...
