June, 8th through 11th 2001 (Friday through
Monday)
Friday night we stayed at the Old Woolstore Hotel in Hobart. Saturday morning we visited the Salamanca market and the Antarctica Centre |
|
|
On Saturday night we drove via the Great Lake to Cradle Mountain National Park where we stayed in the beautiful Cradle Mountain Lodge (see the hyperlinks for pictures with better weather) |
|
Log fire in the cabin. What a treat! |
|
... even more so, when some people outside make sure that there is enough supply ;-) This is David, a Bain colleague of mine who managed to get the wood split in between the Possums. |
|
On Sunday morning we went for a hike in the
National Park.

On Lake Dove |
|
On the road to the King Solomon Caves. Yes, there are a lot of gravel roads in Tasmania. The car had Tiptronic which I can highly recommend. |
|
Sunday night we stayed in the Freycinet
Lodge in Freycinet
National Park, another fantastic Lodge with great food (in particular a
Chocolate Soufflé dessert).
Monday morning we went hiking to the Wineglass Bay lookout ... |
|
.. from where we made our way down to Wineglass Bay Beach ... |
|
... only to later walk across the isthmus of the peninsula to get to Hazardous Beach (where we saw dolphins) |
|
On our way back (to close the loop) we passed stunning coastlines. |
