Day 25 - Arthur River, Launceston
Friday, 21 February 2014
Freezing!!!! Decided to head straight to Launceston! get off this high elevation and maybe things will warm up. Quite spectacular coming down the Western Tiers, very steep. And very quickly into farmland. A few town chores to do, fuel, groceries etc.
Checked out the Honey place, leatherwood is apparently on a par with manuka. Slightly less sweet, but still yucky (to me) but we bought some for medicinal purposes (in the hot toddy:). Keen to try ther sample of beer/honey shampoo.
Further up the street we checked out not a brewery, but a beer house that imported barrels from all over the world. My English porter was delicious, coffee undertones.
Camp 6 showed a place for an overnight stop out at Lilydale Falls. Quite a nice picnic park, but a bit too close to the road. Tasmania must be the motor home capital of Australia, never seen so many.
That evening we had contact from some club friends, Tony and Stella. Turns out they are also in Launceston and also going to check out the National Penny Farthing Championships in Evandale so we arranged to meet up.
