Tassie Part 1

Farmers Union Ice Coffee. It's a South Australian thing, but they have plenty of it in Tasmania. And it is good.


Since our last visit Kate's parents have "adopted" a young Wallaby. It is blind and wandered into their yard and now it lives in a shelter and is content eating the grass and fruit in the backyard.

Kate and I hiked to the top of Ben Lomond, its more known for its skiing in the winter, but it has an easy track to the top in the summer. It's very cool at the top, rocks, moss, lichen and lots of small streams and puddles to hop around.

The trail is denoted by these weather-beaten mossy poles every 50 yards or so.

Towards the summit there are a few old cabins from before it was a national park, you can see one of them peaking out behind Kate.
