What about Tasmania
Tasmania is wonderful. We were there for about 10 days and loved it!
We flew into Hobart, drove up the coast, then inland to Launceston, up to Devonport, along the north coast for awhile, then down to Cradle Mountain and back to Hobart via the Great Lake and the Derwent River. We hope to return for a longer trip to see the west coast. We stayed a couple nights at the Cradle Mountain Lodge, which was expensive, but well worth it. Both the scenery and wildlife in this area other worldly. Port Arthur is another must see. It is an amazing and beautiful site. A trip up Mount Wellington offers spectacular views of Hobart, the Derwent River Valley and the area's dramatic coastline. In addition to identifying key places to visit, we identified waterfalls along our general route and detoured to see as many as we could. It was well worth it. Your visit will forever be a high point in your life. Enjoy your trip! Jerry On Mon, 6 Mar 2006 19:28:04 +0100, "Nospam" wrote: Hi, End this year we'll travel to Tasmania.

What about Tasmania
In addition to the places recommended to visit in a previous email I
would add a trip to the top of Mount Wellington (behind Hobart), Salamanca Market (Saturday early until 3 pm) on Hobart's waterfront - also a monument to the Dutch discovery of Tasmania there - and walk around Battery Point (suburb adjacent to the market). As you will be visiting at a very busy time for tourism I would strongly recommend booking ahead once you have decided on your itinerary. December 20 - January 3 will be particularly busy around Hobart because of Christmas (school holidays, summer holidays, family reunions and the Sydney-Hobart yacht race - starts 26 December - and Taste of Tasmania food festival on the waterfront, 27 December - 3 January).

What about Tasmania
We have just spent 3 weeks in Tassie.We hired a campervan (aka Crampavan)
and just seemed to drive, drive and drive! I really didnt find the scenery anything special. Yes, Cradle Mt was beautiful as was the Tasman Pen, and Freycinet, but overall I think it is totally overrated. We climbed a couple of great mountains, did a lot of walking, but really we have seen more scenic, less crowded, and generally nicer places. Sorry, just an opinion. I think it depends on what you like. If you like coffees on the street, dining out, and paying out to look at stuff, then you will enjoy. We might go back one day, but not until we see what else Aus has to offer. It is no longer on top of our wish list Kathy. |

What about Tasmania
I'll go along with that. There is nothing special about Tasmania, or
anywhere else for that matter. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, I guess. But that doesn't make me want to stop looking. I'd go back to Tassie any time - or any where else for that matter. I just can't stop myself looking. Everything is beautiful to me. Ross "just us" wrote in message ...
