On Monday we bid farewell to Diesel (only temporarily) as we will catch up again before we leave the island. A huge thank you to Diesel and Mrs Diesel for their hospitality while in Westbury. We are now at the north coast seaside town of Wynyard. Within about 100km there is plenty to see and do. Today we found a beautiful little secluded spot at Boat Harbour Beach with crystal clear water and white sand. We journeyed a little further checking out Sisters beach, Latta Port and then to Stanley. Only way to describe it is breathtaking, spectacular views, historic buildings, Hersey’s seafood and the imposing Nut.

I think you need to learn to count.

While on the Tassie West Coast a cruise up Arthur River on the red boat is a must do. Rob, our guide was a wealth of knowledge about the river and surrounding areas and a typical bush bloke to boot.
I also tried one of these today. A scallop pie!!!  Only in Tasmania would they put scallops in a pie.

This past week we have explored further around the West Coast areas of Zeehan, Queenstown and Strahan. Did a cruise along Gordon River through Hells Gate to Cape Sorrel and then to Sara Is. Amazingly the 150 year old ship slips and convict ruins are still visible and it’s difficult to imagine the hardships those people faced. Similarly with the early Piners who sort the Huon Pine in rugged harsh country. Says a lot for their perseverance and tenacity to struggle on.

I've been and seen that SW corner and some of the east, but you've got me all geed up now to go back and see the NW.
It sure is a magical place, and you're blessed with good weather by the looks of it.
For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

Yes we have had great weather a few cool nights in the middle of this week. A very comfortable 20 degrees today on the bike up through Cradle Mt to Hampshire, Penguin and back through to Forth and the Sheffield. Great ride with some tight twisties at the beginning then opening up to wide sweeping corners through Cradle Valley and more twisties on the home run.

We’ve moved south from Sheffield and are now at Oatlands for a few days. Loads of history at Campbell Town with the 1838 Red Bridge. Also fascinating were the pavers inscribed with convict name, Ship, date of arrival and their sentence. Oatlands is also rich in history. After exploring the Flour Mill, dry stone walls and historic buildings I saw PC etched into the stonework. This must have been in his previous life, and I thought I knew him.

Great weekend again. Mt Wellington on Saturday and around parts of Hobart to get out bearings. The views from Mt Wellington were spectacular. Went to the Trout and Salmon hatchery today and saw albino rainbow trout - Good coffee and pancakes there.  We are currently staying at New Norfolk for the week and touring around from there.

It would appear our run of luck with the weather has run out ( only temporarily I hope). It’s been a case of batten down the hatches this morning. Cool, very wet and gusty winds all day. Hoping for clear skies tomorrow.

PC wanted a bus tour round Hobart. Think this will be a one way ticket.
