Launceston 2012 (Day 3)

Liffey Fall

It was about an hour drive from Launceston to Liffey fall.
Sometimes travelling does coupled with a few surprises ... pleasant or unpleasant.
Yeah, as we were approaching Liffey Fall, we came to a halt due to Forest Harvesting Operations!
Sadly, we have to abandon this itinerary for our next destination!

Bye, Liffey Fall, I guess we have to look at your beauty through Google images!

Along the way to our next destination ...
Humming the song "He's not heavy, he's my brother" ... (the road is long, with many
winding turns .....)

Innovative letterboxes ... lambs born in Spring .... tree-lined road ....

Melita Honey Farm

A beautiful and friendly shop in the small village of Chudleigh in Northern Tasmania.

There are all sorts of free-tasting honey ranging from chocolates to red chilli to pepperberry.

The ice-creams tasted awesome with honey in them.

Lovely shop experience as the staff there are really friendly to everyone ....

 Sheffield Town for lunch ... lunch presentation looked like what you will get in Wild Wild West !

Welcome to Cradle Mountain ... one of the Tasmanian's national pride ...
Located at Lake St Clair National Park.
Behind us is Dove Lake ... we took a short hike of gravel stones and steps which took us about 40 minutes to and fro.
The best thing that we experienced in Cradle Mountain was when the bus shuttle driver stopped for us to see a pair of mother and baby wombat crossing the road!!!

 The only cafe (in Swansea) that we got to chit-chat with an eldery Australian lady.
It was drizzling that day and was cold! This lovely cafe with it's friendly lady boss, who is an activist in protecting the environment, served pretty decent food.

 

On our way to Hobart ..... a lovely sight of the coastline.
