Touring around Launceston

We ventured to Grindelwald, Beaconsfield, Beauty Point, Hillwood Berry Farm and Lees Orchard. In all about 115 km round trip. Had a great day.
Grindelwald is a replica Swiss village. It is very cute. I do love ducks. I have decided Mark now has a sock fetish and we seem to buy him socks everywhere we go, he likes the ones that keep his feet warm.
Beaconsfield Mine and Heritage Centre was eye opening. It is interactive so there is something for everyone. Reading all about the rescue in 2006 of Todd Russell and Brant Webb.
