Last weekend we visited some friends in Tasmania. As you might know, Tasmania produces some of the best sparkling wines in the world. So we had to try some.
We went on a superb walk around Cradle Mountain – 19km and up and down a couple of thousand metres, even though we didn’t attempt to get to the summit of the mountain itself!
It was seriously wet. The paths are good, and well-maintained in the National park. They needed to be!
The scenery was superb.
We also visited Low Head Lighthouse, at the mouth of the River Tamar, which has a huge compressed air powered foghorn, which has been restored and it powered up and sounded every Sunday. We were there at the right moment, and it was both deeply impressive and deafening!
