Walked down to some of the granite rocks near our motel this morning and Dave was dwarfed by the size of them.
Quite a drive today as we went south to begin with to see something of the Freychinet Peninsula and had some glimpses of the beautiful pink granite mountains and stretches of green, blue and turquoise sea.
Back through Bicheno and northwards up the coast before turning west to Launceston (pronounced Lorn-ce-ston here). We took the A3 - the scenic route - and it was a somewhat different from the UK version! Stopped off at St Helens for refreshment, where there were several small jetties for fishermen. Apparently fish are abundant here with a great diversity of species, including one that tickled my fancy - the Bastard Trumpeter.
