Many Tasmanians think of Queenstown on our wild west coast, as a dismal cold town in a hole in the ground. It is not. While is does rain a lot down that way, when you get a good day it is stunning. This was my weekend:
The drive down
Mt Owen from Iron Blow (There's walking and mountain biking trail gold up in them there hills)
Can you see the new short walk clinging to the mountain side?
Soon to be officially opened, it takes you closer to the top of Horsetail Falls for a better view.
Much of the hills are still beautifully bare but the forest is returning. Wattle, pink and white heaths are flowering now.
Main street - unique and historic
The little blue house just up from the main street is for sale. There is a lot of my sweat in it as I helped my son to fully renovate it.
The drive home
And then the weather changed and the showers came.
