Taking a morning walk in Queenstown on a chilly morning
It is easy to forget that I went to Tasmania a couple of months ago and that I still have lots of photos that I haven’t done anything with yet. For this trip, we went […]
Walking through a rainforest on a cruise along Arthur River
Last week when I did the post Taking a cruise on the Arthur River in Tasmania I said there would be more from that day. When we got off the boat at the place we would […]

The Edge of the World – West coast of Tasmania
When we arrived at Arthur River we went straight to our accommodation to check it out. It was a nice place and right on the water. It is always nice just looking out a window […]

Quick post today. I’m getting ready for a presentation and I’ve run out of time. So to make sure I post I have prepared this image. It was taken at the nut and was at […]
Some of the birds seen on the Tamar River Cruise

Fagus trees that surround Dove Lake and Cradle Mountain
One of the things that was a complete surprise when we went to Cradle Mountain were all the Fagus trees that were changing colours. I think I just expected that when we went there it […]
Lighthouses on the coast of Tasmania
One thing about going along the coast of Tasmania, or any coast really, is that you get to see lighthouses. This was one we found down a dirt road and I think it is Bluff […]
Getting back and looking back at the Milky Way in Queenstown
I have made it home. I have to say the last leg was a bad one. I don’t know, I find it really hard to sleep on the boat, or the Spirit of Tasmania. The […]

Tasmanian Wanderings – Around Dove Lake under Cradle Mountain

Tasmanian Wanderings – To Cradle Mountain we go in the internet no go zone

Tasmanian Wanderings – Queenstown to other places and back again
Today we were all over the place. We started the morning with breakfast at Tracks in Queenstown. It was a very foggy morning and I decided to walk through town to breakfast. Of course I […]

Hey everyone, day 2 in Tasmania has come to a close. I just wanted to say please forgive me if I don’t get to the comments quickly. I don’t seem to have a lot of […]
Tasmanian Wanderings – Arriving and getting around
The boat pulled in very early in the morning and we drove off the boat. We were greeted with a grey chilly morning, but who cares about that when you are on holidays? The first […]
