outback rover adventures: March 2026

Tuesday, March 31, 2026

It's not every day you see a bike carrier for penny farthing bicycles. But in Tassie they have a festival for them in Evandale.

I finally saw some wombats near the start of the Overland Track at Cradle Mountain. They are very cute and amazingly fast and agile.

A cute pademelon came into say hello near our campsite.

Another angle on Cradle Mountain from Dove Lake.

Cradle Mountain view from Lake Wilks.

A must do walk to visit Cradle Mountain brought us past a few handcrafted timber kayaks on Dove Lake.

The ferris wheel on the Geelong beach, was a good spot to stop in while waiting for the ferry to Tasmania for a recent holiday.

A total lunar eclipse last night on March 3 was worth a shot. Truly remarkable view from a dark sky.
