Bruny Island

Since Bruny Island is a island, dad decided to park on the boat (like we did on ‘Spirit Of Tasmania’.) After 30 minutes we reached Bruny Island. In Bruny Island dad decided to stay in a marvelous caravan park called ‘James cook.’ If your wondering, we stayed in a cabin named Exedous. On the top of my bunk bed there was a lovely window that blew in fresh air. My sister and I made some videos to put on u tube unforntually the filming was too bumpy. I was disappointed because I had made another video that had worked out ( To view it click this link .)

One night we all decided do go fishing ( P.S. we didn’t catch any.) When we had finished fishing we started to drive back to our cabin. On the way back I saw something as small as a cat running funnily up someones driveway. We knew it wasn’t a cat because it eyes did not glow when our car lights shined on whatever it was’s eyes. Later that night mum saw a wild Wombat. About 5 minutes later I spotted a small cute marsupial munching on grass. Just before we reached our cabin we all saw wild wallabies. It was a very exiting night but we were all tired and decided to go to bed.

The next day we went to a berry farm. I had to be careful because there was electric wire protecting all the fence. When we got inside mum bought me some pepper berry icecream. It was a bit weird because it was sweet then spicy.

At night time we all decided to go on a penguin tour. I decided to walk up to the top off the lookout (on the top of a hill) that was there. While I was walking up the hill I heard lots of rustling. Since it was nighttime and I didn’t have the inferred torch I couldn’t see the animal in the bush, but I did hear penguins calling and I did see a couple up there. It was very exiting looking for penguins. The way you see them ,without climbing up to the lookout, Is by looking for holes in the ground bigger then snake holes and waiting, eventually you will see the penguins. Just before we left I saw all the male fairy penguins all in a group of 50 waddling up the mountain (which I climbed up.)

Bruny Island is a great place and I definitely recommend going there for at the least 1 day!!!
