Headed east from Hobart on Thursday, only to be stopped at Triabunna about 80kms away.
Fires had started @ Coles bay near Swansea & also Bicheno further north
Stayed couple nights behind the pub @ Triabunna (gold coin donation for firies & ambo's)
Headed back to Orford 7kms away, lovely Shelley beach for a dip !!! water still pretty cold
Maria island in the background. Once to fires took hold further north, we couldn't see the island for smoke haze for at least 4 days
Nice view !!!!!
Another good campsite, just up the road from beach & shops
Donation in tin @ IGA grocery store
