We made it safe and Sound...


The seas were the predicted levels and neither of us were sea sick and managed to get a reasonable night’s sleep. I would have a guess that we were sharing an area with about 150 other people and not one person was snoring which I found amazing I had prepared myself for a bad night and got a fairly good one so we were both happy.

We were off the boat by 7am and on our way to Anvers French Chocolate Cafe for breakfast and planning. It was a delicious feed and we set our rough itinerary for the rest of the 2 weeks. From there we pushed onto Hadspen where we will be camping for tonight.

We dropped off the trailer and then headed into Launceston for the day to start sightseeing. First stop was Beaconsfield at the Mines which was really interesting and informative a must for anyone travelling to the area. We then cruised up and down the high ways to all sorts of little towns stopping occasionally to take in the view and atmosphere. We had heard that Cataract George was very good so that was our next excursion. It also didn’t disappoint and we took the chair ride across and walked back to have a late lunch.

We then found some needed shops and things in Launceston did our grocery shopping and headed back to camp to set up for the night. James is fixing one of his remote control cars AGAIN and I am trying to stay awake long enough to have dinner but it will be an early night.

Bye for now,

Us2martins now in Tassie.

Hi guys,
glad to see you landed safe & sound. I'm sure you would have slept soundly anyway being so tired.
Also pleased to see you chose the 'diet version cafe' for breaky . . . . . I would have chosen that one too, better to be safe than sorry. Talk soon, love Mum etc xxooxx
