Good morning everyone we are at Launceston today.
Yesterday we checked into this beautiful heritage hotel called Penny Royale Leisure Inn
We are going to spend two days here in Launceston before heading towards our next destination
Launceston city park was established in 1820.
It is part of the cultural life of Launceston and also considered to be a heritage park
The city of Launceston has some historic buildings.
The architecture is so different it does not look like a modern city but it's really very good
We are at the seaport having some morning coffee.
They are using some reusable bamboo paper-lined coffee cup environmental friendly.
So behind me is the Cataract Gorge.
It is just 15 kilometres from the city and here you will find the longest single chair lift
A one-way trip to the chair lift is around $13 and a return will cost you around $16
We are taking a ride in this chair lift, the view from here is beautiful
So we took the chair lift from here and reached all the way up here, now we are taking this
walk towards this Alexandra lookout and the suspension bridge.
This route will then take us back to the starting point.
We are now at penny royal adventure area and we are the first ones to be here
This park is only open on weekends and on school holidays so check out the timings before you come here.
Luckily today is a school holiday so this part is open for us.
There are also some good restaurants inside this adventure park which you can try while enjoying the rides.
So we are at Brady's lookout.
It is one of the top 10 attractions in Tamar valley and probably will get the entire view
of Tamar valley from this lookout.
The views from Brady's lookout is just amazing you can see the entire Tamar valley and the
Tamar river and it's just awesome.
This place does not feel like Tasmania, it feels like we are in a small village in Europe.
Actually, this is the swiss village in Tasmania in Launceston.
It has some good cafes good European architecture interesting places for kids to have fun it's a nice place.
Mexican food in Swiss village....yummy.
We are now entering into the maze let's see if we can solve this puzzle or we get lost.
Both ways it's gonna be fun.
We have made it....yes
50 minutes drive from Launceston Bridestowe lavender farm is one of the most unique tourist attraction
It's the largest lavender farm in the southern hemisphere.
The best time to visit this place in December and January but we are here in April so we
are not able to see any lavender over here
So we had some good dinner at this Thai place.
I had crab fried rice and I had Panang curry after so many years it used to be my favourite earlier.
Well, it's time to say goodbye to Launceston as we head towards Cradle mountain tomorrow.

Goodbye!
