While my travelogues for Tasmania are only still in brief while i concentrate on more recent trips, you can check our our 2006 Tasmanian tour under travelogues on my website to read about both the high profile tourist attractions and the out of the way places we found; usually on the advice of locals.
To see a bit of everything we did a double loop; touring the north coast, west coast to Strahan, Queenstown to Hobart, the southern tip, along the north coast, south via the historic midlands, then north again through the central mountains. Hi, It sound like you had a great time in Tassie-whish I had much more time-say 6 moths or so, but sadly such is not the case. I'm chasing locals too for those special places. Thanks for the tip! Regards Fred

I hope you are going to keep the same format you have done with the latest series through outback NSW and Qld.
You spent plenty of time in the one place and showed us all what there was to see in that area. I personally found this format to be more to my liking.
Can't wait to see you Tassie ones
BennyT50 Hi, Thanks for your input. We favour the idea of spending as much time as possible in one place as you correctly say, that's what most vanners do. However, we are always looking for relevant stories, ususual 'gems', quaint places and the best free camping sites, hence must keep on the move. Our Tassie trip will feature three basic areas and we'll try to limit travel as much as possible. Thanks for your comments-keep them coming. Regards Fred

Surely C&M's budget could stretch to a new hat!!!!
Cheers CHONGA Yes, what's to become of the hat? Some people have suggested a new hat and a new frontal lobe at the same time. The old Akubra's been a constant companion for years and years; rain, hail or heat wave. Let me know what you think of DVD 171 at Kempsey where we visit the Akubra factory. Regards Fred

Jeez Fred - DVD 171. You are well ahead of the general release to the public. It won't be out for a few months, as the current one I have is #167 Winton.

Hey Fred, you must be ultra special as the Akubra factory is not generally open to tourists, or even those of us who live in the district. Good on you for getting a sneak look behind the gates.

there is a place called the Blue Tier in the north east towards St Helens. There is a Goblin Forest Walk and it is amazing.
