Yippee, yippee, yippee .... :D :D :D

Heading down from Geelong tomorrow (28th) arrive into Cradle late that night, off to Scott Kilvett Friday for the night with a nice wander around the area. Pics look great!

Back to Launceston Sat evening (and dinner out) - fly back Sunday early and then the footy at Geelong at 1pm.

Does it get any better than THAT if you only have a couple of days free? I think NOT.

Sounds great! (Except the footy, I'm headed for the soccer a few weeks later).

Fagus is still on at Cradle. A bit past it's peak but plenty of colour there. These pics from Monday, a superb Tassie autumn day: crisp, sunny blue sky.
