Cradle Mountain
20 de abril de 2019, Austrália ⋅ ⛅ 14 °C
Made our way to Cradle Mountain, booked into our cabin in the National Park and took off for a walk. Very well done, one major car park with buses every 10 mins for the 20min drive to the start for us.
We did the 6km circuit around Dove Lake under Cradle Mountain. Lots of steps, mostly rock, lots of timber board walks and lots of uneven small rock. Absolutely spectacular.
It took us 2hrs 10mins although we did stop for about 10 mins to have our lunch. We have walked over 10 Km’s today. IJeanette & I had lots of laughs on the way.
At 8.30pm we went to a Tasmanian Devil sanctuary to see them being fed along with quolls. The sanctuary does a lot of good with their breeding programme.
Absolutely buggered now.Leia mais

Cradle Mountain to Launceston
21 de abril de 2019, Austrália ⋅ ☁️ 20 °C
Wow, another huge day. Lake Barrington then on to Wilmot through rural roads and their colourful letter boxes.
Up to Devonport, just another port not terribly interesting through Latrobe then stopped at Sheffield (mural town) for lunch at the local pub, not too bad either.
Next stop Railton to see Topiary figures. Finally reached Launceston and found accommodation (pure luxury and cheaper than our cabin last night). Love it.
Walked around town then had a wonderful salmon and salad dinner. Now bed time. Again absolutely buggered. Nearly forgot, we had a honey ice cream on the way.Leia mais

Cataract Gorge and surrounds
23 de abril de 2019, Austrália ⋅ ☀️ 17 °C
Out to Cataract Gorge to walk the Duck Reach Trail, a beautiful spot that has been made into a lovely family park, with lots of walking trails. We walked for two hours up the South Esk River across a suspension bridge to a disused Power Station open to the public showing the workings etc, it was well done. Lots of laughs on the way. Then headed up the west side of the Tamar River to the furthest point at Greens Beach/West Head. Beautiful scenery on the way. Called in to Platypus House at Beauty Point to see the Platypus and Echidnas, fantastic little things, only place we are going to see them as they are elusive in the wild. Now I can give Jeanette back her 20cent coin!!!!! We called into a little Swiss Village called Grindelwald where all the houses are built in Swiss Style, very different but cute. Back to Launceston for a drive around the town before crashing at our ‘luxury accommodation’. Ended the night with a wood fired seafood pizza from the restaurant close by, washed down with a good red.Leia mais

Leaving Launceston
23 de abril de 2019, Austrália ⋅ ☀️ 17 °C
Left our luxury accommodation to head up the eastern side of the Tamar River to Georgetown and Low Head lighthouse. Delightful historic place with old maritime cottages for rent. We thought this side much nicer than the west side. We even had to cross over the Tamar on the Batman Bridge just to say we had done it.
Headed to St Helen’s via Bridport for a scallop pie for lunch on the foreshore. Yum.
To Scottsdale, Derby and then Pyongyang’s to the cheese factory - ended up buying cheese and a chilly bag to hold it all!!! Then on to the Pub in a Paddock where Priscilla the pig likes a pint or two. A kiwi publican running this unorthodox pub in the middle of nowhere, so funny.
Lots of beautiful countryside before we hit St Helens and our two bedroom cabin, very nice. Took off again for the Bay of Fires north of St Helens on the coast. Wow, just beautiful. Then dinner at a very new restaurant on the waterfront, seafood pasta, Yummy.Leia mais

St Helens to Bicheno
24 de abril de 2019, Austrália ⋅ ⛅ 17 °C
Lovely drive down to Bicheno today calling into lots of lovely beaches, even talked to some fishermen surf casting. One caught a decent sized ocean trout whilst we were there. Visited Coles Bay and the Freycinet National Park, along with Cape Tourville. Such amazing beaches and scenery.
Had Lobster lunch at Bicheno, wow, so yummy. Because we had a big lunch we called into an oyster farm (there are many, I am in seventh heaven) and bought a dozen each for our dinner. Lovely, along with ocean trout an cheese & Bikkies. I am now so full.
Saw lots and did lots, having so much fun with Jeanette, she is a wonderful travelling mate.Leia mais

Wineglass Bay Cruise
25 de abril de 2019, Austrália ⋅ ⛅ 18 °C
No dawn parade today sadly as we had to leave early to meet our cruise boat tour leaving from Coles Bay. We travelled down to Schouten Passage out into the ocean, and up the east coast to Wineglass Bay where we anchored for lunch. Unusual rock formations and caves. Not as good as the last two cruises we have done but ok.
Returned at 2pm, then did an hour and a half walk to the Wineglass Bay lookout. Real pleased we did it, very very steep going up. Lovely to look out over the Bay where we had been for lunch. Magnificent views and bush along with the huge rocks.
Found our house for one night, great views over the ocean. Scallops, prawns, calamari, fish & chips for dinner.Leia mais
