Less than two weeks to go! As I’ve noted elsewhere, we have been planning this trip for a while. I think half the adventure of travelling someplace new is finding out lots of things about the place. In the case of Tasmania this has been a very interesting time. They have all sorts of animals we don’t have, the geography is small but varied, there are great white sands beaches in some areas, they grow grapes and make wine, the vegetation is lots different than ours … and I think we have only scratched the surface of information. We have a cycling trip booked, and also a 72 km hike called the Overland Track. The cycling is supported but the hike is not. Both of these things are either new to both of us, or we haven’t done them together. Should be lots of good exercise and fun too.
Okay, back to making lists and packing!
