Tasmania: Day Seven

Final day in Tasmania.  We spent the last day at Port Arthur, an old prison based on the Tasman Peninsula.  This prison was home to thousands of criminals from all over the world.  We toured the prison and the land surrounding it, including a cruise in the harbor to see other aspects of the prison system there.  A neat place to visit and see the history of Tasmania and Australia.
Morning stop in Richmond.  Oldest bridge in Australia (1825).
