Wednesday
So having walked all day Monday and then all day Tuesday, our host suggested a leisurely walk along the coast as our activity for the day. We drove around the coast and looked at the Huon River which was beautiful before arriving at Conningham beach was stunning. We prepared ourselves to the best of our ability and then set off at fifty miles an hour along the cliff tops. Now it may have been the twenty or so miles we had covered in the previous two days, but I had to fight all those feelings that were telling me that I didn't want to walk at all. However we got to Legacy beach and then carried onto an aboriginal cave.
It is difficult to walk if your brain is continually telling you to stop for no apparent reason. Generally I love walking but this was almost a stroll too far.
We decided to walk back to Conningham for lunch and Rosemarie and Ans went for a swim. The temperature was now well into the thirties and after lunch we set off to find Fossil Cove.
What we hadn't realised was that the walk to the cove was quite long, and from where we left the car was down hill all the way to the sea.

The walk down was worth it although my thigh muscles had now decided to go into revolt. The coastline here is well worth seeing.
After the steep walk up hill back to the car my legs were screaming at me to stop, but who was I to listen to them?
We drove back to Ans and Peter's and were then taken to Romy's house where were spending the night.
The evening was very relaxing, we watched a film about Tasmania called "The Hunter " and retired to our beds aching all over but full of memories and pictures of the beauty of Tasmania.
