One down

And what a great one. I think we exceeded both of our expectations for yesterday. The best that tassie can offer was offered up us yesterday ;

– A great brunch at the chocolate factory near devonport.
– Being out in the middle of the bush only 10 minutes from Devonport.
– Plenty of drivers going out of their way to avoid us
– Friendly farmers giving us a wave as they pass us in the opposite direction
– A tent that went up easily
– A bed that stayed warm and dry
– Some beautify back country roads through scenic fields.
– Some very curious cows and horses.
– Some light showers followed up by gloriously drying sun bursts
– Some fantastic mountain ranges.

The only down side…. 50klm is a long way with all the weight.

Probably going to head up cradle mountain today however I think it’s going to hurt.

We’re staying just at the base of mt Roland about 14klm from where this photo was taken.
