2nd Week - Tuesday - Mount William National Park

Today we took a picnic lunch and spent the day at Mount William National Park.  We visited Musselroe Bay, Ansons Bay, Policemans Point and Eddystone Point (most easterly point of the state) where there is a lighthouse.  There are also some buildings there but the area has been given back to the original land owners and the buildings are now falling into disrepair.  It was a strange national park in that there are villages in different bays.  Anywhere between 20 to 50 houses which are obviously holiday homes or fishing shacks.  This is the first time we have seen permanent dwellings in a National Park.  We met a couple from North Carolina.  This is their third visit to Tasmania as they love the area.  This trip they are also going to Hotham and Bright.  We kept running into them at each tourist point.  There really isn't that much to say.  We saw forester kangaroos, wallabies, and an echidna together with beautiful beaches.  Below are a few pictures of the area.
