We headed south today (yes, it is possible to go further south than Hobart and not fall off the edge of the world), to travel down the coast and see the Tessellated Pavement.

We stopped in Richmond (another of Tasmania's historic towns) for morning tea. Becky and I rested by the fountain in the park.

We made our way to the Tessellated Pavement via the Pirate Bay Road, but unfortunately we didn't see any pirates (Becky was even wearing her pirate pants). I know the Tessellated Pavement looks like it was tiled by man made means, but I can assure it's all natural. It took more than 100 million years to make it that way.

That same stretch of coast contains other geological phenomena: a blow hole, Fossil Beach, the Tasman Arch ad the Devil's Kitchen. I also saw a small snake when going to get a picture of the Kitchen, but it was moving too fast for me to take a picture of it.
