Cygnet to Launceston

We left Bruny and traveled west to Cygnet on the Huon river, to Nicks and Andy’s second air B&B. The next day went for a drive up one side of the Huon river and down the other side visiting lots of beautiful old towns as we went. The day after that we headed towards Launceston and I suggested we take the back roads, it’ll take a little longer but far more picturesque and very little traffic. They agreed, so we zigzagged our way to Launceston, instead of taking 2 and a half hours it took 6 hours , and what a fantastic drive it was. We traveled through farm land, forestry, mountains and horticultural land as we came into Launceston. The mountain we came down into Launceston dropped us down 1200m in a very short time ( ears were popping) and the brakes were very hot. I pick up Bess in a couple of days and we will start looking around Launceston and then down the east coast.Baca lagi
