Tamar Valley views
17 December 12
From Launceston, we’ve now driven up and down both sides of the Tamar Valley. Along the way, I’ve stopped the bus to record some particularly lovely or memorable sights.
An older church built before electricity.
I'm not sure what this tall building was — perhaps it was a signal for the river traffic.
One day as I'm walking around near our bus, I notice this little chick sitting on the ground.
At the far north of the western side of the Tamar — at Greens Beach — the sea has whipped up a great amount of froth that proves irresistible to Aisha.
Yes, that's what we're on.
The rows of flowers at Lavender House in Rowella charm us with their scent.
Every now and again, we catch a sight of the Tamar, and its waters mirror the bright blue of the sky.
I’m not sure that we’re finished exploring this part of the country. I caught glimpses of other attractions as we drove past, and these memories are calling to me even as we drive away from them. However, that’s the beauty of Tasmania — the island is so small that we will be able to return easily enough and seek out new adventures on roads we’ve already travelled!
