… clap your hands.”
Olde traditional Tasmanian song
My first visit to Tasmania.
From Melbourne I flew straight to Hobart in Tasmania. Historical evidence of the convict era is everywhere. Tourism is flourishing.
We drove up to Launceston (67,000) for a 1-day gymnastics clinic. My host, UK expat John Hargreaves, took me out for traditional fish and chips, the local brew, then a walking tour of town up into impressive Cataract Gorge. This is the principle tourist attraction in town and ideal for walkers such as John and myself.
