Bicheno, Tasmania

Looks can be deceiving! They weren't being sweet, or peaceful:) But Bicheno was beautiful and peaceful.
We stayed in a self contained cottage. We have learned that when traveling with kids it is so much easier to stay somewhere with a kitchen. Making your own meals saves lots of money, especially here in Australia.
The water was so blue!
Dad was the only one up with the sun:)
Fairy Penguin tracks! We had such an adventure each night after sunset. We would creep down to the beach and patiently wait for the penguins to come out of the water and go to their little nests in the bushes. One time they came about 10 feet in front of us! I think they were saying, "Can you please move so I can get to my home, I've had a long day of fishing!"
At low tide we could walk out to this little island.
Tasmania stays so pristine because it is so removed from the rest of the world.
This field was full of fuzzy sheep.
I think this one was a pet.
