A day trip to the Peninsula where I used to have many relatives. We didn't pay to go into the historic ruins at Port Arthur; at the time of day we got there, the amount to get in was prohibitive, so we made do with the Tessellated Pavement, the Blowhole and Devil's Kitchen, at Eaglehawk Neck, and Remarkable Cave, past Port Arthur. At Remarkable Cave, the tide was starting to come in, so we were only able to get part-way into the cave.
