Tasmania 2010: St Helens to Launceston
http://tasmania2010-jardry.blogspot.com/2010/10/st-helens-to-launceston.html
Diary of our October 2010 Tasmanian Holiday. St Helens to Launceston. After experiencing our best nights sleep for the holiday, we departed St Helens around 9.00am for Launceston. Our first stop was St Columbia Falls. The falls are visible as a "drive by" without having to take the walk to the base of the falls if that is not your inclanation. Having driven for what seemed hours we came to a town by the name of Derby and had another toilet break. We learnt that the population of Derby would increase ...

Tasmania 2010: Launceston to Devenport
http://tasmania2010-jardry.blogspot.com/2010/10/launceston-to-devenport.html
Diary of our October 2010 Tasmanian Holiday. Today would be our last day in Tasmania. As the drive to Devenport was the shortest day drive of our holidays we tried to leave later than usual, but it seems our body clock decided we must be ready and on the road by 8.30am. We were at least assured of getting to Melbourne and once there, not knowing whether the Pajero would start or not! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). St Helens to Launceston.

Diary of our October 2010 Tasmanian Holiday. We awoke to news that the weather was unlikely to improve and that it was forecast that it would be raining for most of the day. We left our motel around 8.00am and drive down to Carrum Downs to pick up our trailer. We stopped at the Calder Outbound BP for breakfast before continuing on to Bendigo where we fuelled up. Next stop was Sea Lake where we bought some sandwiches for lunch and fuelled up again. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Hobart to Port Arthur.

Tasmania 2010: Melbourne on Thursday
http://tasmania2010-jardry.blogspot.com/2010/10/melbourne-on-thursday.html
Diary of our October 2010 Tasmanian Holiday. The trip back on the Spirit of Tasmania was not as smooth as the trip to Tasmania. Whilst we slept on and off, when we got up around 5.30am we both felt as if we had been on the grog the night before as we both had headaches! We finally got the call that we could return to our vehicles and disembark. The $64 million question was "Would the Pajero start? About 250 metres down the round was another Auto Electrician, who was there, and we asked if he could check ...

http://tasmania2010-jardry.blogspot.com/2010/10/melbourne-on-sunday.html
Diary of our October 2010 Tasmanian Holiday. Having watch the Grand Final and witnessing a very comprehensive victory by Collingwood, we retired quite early. With daylight saving commencing today, we were all awake and ready to move on by 8.30am. By 600pm we were on board and settled into our cabin for the journey over. We had a meal at the "Captain's Table" restaurant on board and were very surprised with the quality of the food on offer. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). St Helens to Launceston.

Tasmania 2010: Getting to Melbourne
http://tasmania2010-jardry.blogspot.com/2010/10/getting-to-melbourne.html
Diary of our October 2010 Tasmanian Holiday. The day finally arrived - we're going to Tasmania! Last week's drawn AFL Grand Final meant we had to come to some concensus as to what time we left Adelaide for the drive over to Melbourne. Do we leave late Friday night and get to Melbourne in plenty of time to book-in and then watch the Grand Final, or do we leave early Saturday morning and get to Melbourne in time to watch the second half of the Grand Final.
