Wilson's Promotory

Visiting Wilson's Prom is a highlight of any trip to this area. It was a gorgeous (sorry, that doesn't do justice but I don't have a more appropriate superlative) drive down to the area. The Prom is a National Park with so many hikes in varying climates.  We went to an overlook to one of the many bays and beaches then after lunch, we took another walk that covered dry forests to lush rain forests.  We saw quite a bit in a short geographical area.  Plus, we had the added bonus of seeing unique animals!  One day isn't enough time to do justice to the park but well worth any time spent there.

These  pods are huge and contain many individual seeds.

Swimming is water just deep enough for fun.

She is sitting up in the swift water having a blast.

This is one of many, many crows in the area.  A large and vocal bird.

Wallabies are common in this area but this is the only one we saw
on this particular hike.
