Port Arthur here we come (well, we went)

After Hobart we took off for Port Arthur.

Tasmania has many historical buildings and sites throughout and the prison ruins at Port Arthur would be the most famous. We took the guided walk as well as wandering around the sites ourselves. We also went on the island cemetery tour and saw the site of Australia's first boys prison. That night we took the ghost tour but it wasn't really all that scarey after all. The ghosts were probably scared of us more than the other way around.

Tasmania is currently very dry, in the middle of a drought so the green rolling hills we expected were all brown and dry. Nonetheless still very enjoyable. Hilary keeps dragging me (not really) into lots of antique shops.
