    Thank you💙💙 one of our favourite places Deloraine. Viewing your vlogs has made us realise how many places we (just) missed - we will have to go back me thinks🥰. Thanks Jan Adelaide ( still in Q -hopefully home early July🤞🤞🤞

      There a places that we know that we have missed, can't do it all in one trip as there is too much to see. Hope all goes well for you for the home in July.👌

    Great you're getting to see all sorts of weather & places - although, for us in the North it has been lovely sunny & dry, ideal for visitors experiencing the best Tassie has to offer. I can't believe people were actually running Launceston down to the extent of discouraging people from visiting - it's not such a small place that there wouldn't be something there for most - there is a rivalry dating back to Colonial days - from the earliest days of settlement between the Capital and Lonnie - Hard to imagine it continues 200-yrs down the track! I'm sure you realized, convict labour ceased in the 1800's rather than LAST century!! But young people watching may not spot the difference, hence Campbell Town 's Red Bridge was built in 1838 and the bridge in Ross was finished around 1836 of fine sandstone construction.
    I do find it quite surprising that it is so quiet - in England, the off-season is so popular with campers like yourselves - no kids to worry about - and the weather tends to be quite benevolent in Spring & Autumn - Hopefully your relaxing exploration will entice other nomads down here when the kids are back in school! Did you get to Longford - a good farm town? There are several historic, listed properties worth visiting in the Midlands, I'd suggest the National Trust's Clarendon House at Nile, the elms would have been magnificent! -If you are interested in Colonial History, Woolmers and Brickendon near Longford/Creasy. are awesome - seeing these places and walking in the footsteps of people long gone really does add another depth & dimension to visiting an island like Tasmania. Happy travels, and thanks for sharing - keep safe! There is a bigger campsite along the river in Deloraine.

      It frustrates me greatly that I am not able to go into my video on UA-cam and edit errors such as dates. The only way to do it that I am aware of is to delete the video and redo it or I believe I can cut pieces out but no correction while it exists is possible. Unfortunately the date is an error on my part, you are not the first one to alert me to it.
      There are so many places that we didn't get to visit, Longford being one of them. You would think three months would be long enough to see everything in Tasmania, unfortunately at the pace that we like to move around, we will need to do another trip to see the things that we have missed out on during this trip.

    Yes, I loved Deloraine as we stopped there & were able to walk round the town centre. I thought it was a very quaint town & would be a very nice place to live. I am glad it wasn't me waking up to that cold morning. I had noticed that Tassie had low temps but didn't think of you to be honest but yes, I woke up to some very cold mornings when I visited & on visiting the high country it isn't unusual to see snow falling like that out of season (for us New South Welshmen) It was lovely visiting Campbell Town again & Ross but I really would have loved to have gone up that road to Deloraine as it was so beautiful, especially with the trees changing colour. My last trip was down the eastern side of Tassie in mid February & it got very cold on some days & we had cold driving rain which wasn't so nice. It was like autumn had come early that year.
    I see by the weatherman that we have our first low heading your way & bringing a change to the seasons as until now we have had only large highs traveling across Australia since Christmas. So I am looking forward to Wednesday morning when we get a day of north easterlies before the cold west wind hits & winter starts. This is why you have had such good weather for your Tasmania trip!!

      We expected to see more wet days in Tassie than what we actually had during our trip but the lower than normal rainfall was to our advantage as it mad places like Deloraine shine to perfection. We had heard that it can snow out of season but be didn't expect snow to fall while we were there, so it was a pleasant surprise for us🙂

    Autumn in Tassie usually serves up a lot of calm sunny weather, many locals say it's their favourite season. It's a good time to visit if you can accept the lower temperatures and shorter days.
    There are platypus in the river at Deloraine too.

      We would like to do another trip at some stage, next one would be in the late part of Spring. Deloraine was such a pretty place to visit, one of those places that you know from the first sighting that you are going to enjoy it.

      @@justcruisinwithmicksally837 Late spring is definitely warmer on average, and the midland areas will likely be greener, but the weather can be more volatile.
      You just described Deloraine perfectly!

    When your camped up for ine night do you unhitch or stay hitched up?

      @justcruisinwithmicksally837  6 місяців тому

      Very seldom do we stay hitched up unless we are stopping purely because the day has ended and moving on first thing the next day with no touring around between arrival and departure.

      You are correct, my mistake. Unfortunately UA-cam doesn't have the facility to allow me to go back to edit the video which can be annoying in situations like this one.
