Windy excursion 🌪🏔🌬🏖

My first way today was to the famous Harvest market in Launceston, which takes place pnly saturdays and even is a UNESCO heritage. 👩🏼‍🌾👨🏽‍🌾
Besides local fruit (especially cherries 🍒), herbs and vegtables one can also find local pastry, honey, olive oil and food stands. 🍇🍐🥦🥕🥐🍯🥟🍔☕️
It was a really lovely market, especially when a live band started to play as well. 🎶🎙
After about an hour there I made my way to the Ben Lomond national park, as I wanted to hike up to the summit of Mt. Ben Lomond, which is around 1,500m high. 🏔
In winter locals can go skiing up there and in summer it's supposed to be a nice hiking spot. 🎿🥾
On my way up (you have to drive up rather high) I already realizid, that I did not bring the right clothes...it was sooo windy and freeeezing up there 🌪🌪🥶🥶 so I decided to just stop at Jacob's ladder and then drive back down...even more as the summit was completely foggy anyways 🌫😶‍🌫️
I then drove to Bridgeport, a nice village on the northshore of the island and went for a little walk there 😊
It was for sure warmer than on Ben Lomond, but I couldn't escape the wind today haha 🙈 it was so strong there, that I constantly had to hold my sunglasses on my nose, cause otherwise they would have been blown away 🤓 and no, taking them off was not an option, as I would have had all the sand blown in my eyes then 😅
From Bridgeport I headed back to Launceston, where I spent a nice evening 😊
