Day 14 Tuesday 10th February
Today we continued our travels across to Launceston and then further North along the Tamar Valley to a Caravan park at Point Beauty on the banks of the Tamar River. Along the way we took in the views, (pic shows hay bales)lunched at Bridport on the sea, viewed the Scotsdale Eco Farm, and took in the lavender farm which unfortunately is not at its best at this time of the year. The road kill in Tasmania is quite high and through this section even higher. In one short stretch of 100m we counted 5 dead paddy melons. Among the bounty of the road are Tassie devils, possums, wallabies and paddy melons. The trip across to Launceston from the east coast via Scotdale is a bit slow due to the hilly winding road. A quick drive around Launceston gave us the opinion it was not as nice as the Hobart area.
