Last day in Hobart

RUSSELL FALLS Yesterday we went to the Mt Field National Park the falls were just lovely, we then carried on up the hill to the tall trees walk. Walked back down the hill and bumped into a young couple we met at Dubbo and on the ferry, they have two young children and originally came from Toowoomba. We previously went part way up Mt Wellington at the back of Hobart but too much cloud around.
DERWENT VALLEY from part way up to Mt Dobson, it was a very steep and windy road, at the top is a big lake and then access for skiers to the mountain. Funny to think that there are several lakes at the top of the mountain, one of them being water supply. A few people about as it was a public holiday.
JAN AND RUSS Last night we met up for Chinese at Sorrell, it was lovely to meet them in person after following their blog. We had a great night with quite a few laughs. A good time was had by all, great company and average food, but what the hell.
SEVEN MILE BEACH This is close to where we are staying at Cambridge, a lovely beach and imagine it would be great in 'summer'. Lovely views across the bay, just staggering how many lovely bays there are around Hobart, sure are a lot of homes with water views. We also went down to Kingston and had lunch there. Late this afternoon we had a drink with another couple in the caravan park, we have met them at Benalla, Melbourne and then at Lake St Clair. A very social couple of days.
