Dag 645 – Lagoons Beach -> Hobart (Tasmanien)
Distance covered in the Mazda: 550 km (total 1730 km)
Tasmania Day 6.
Bemærk venligst, at et af de følgende billeder er et sørgeligt, sørgeligt syn. Det er noget med en død dyremor og hendes døde baby. Det gjorde ondt at se.
Så er advarslen ude.
At være taget til Tasmanien har gennem de sidste 5 dage vist sig at være en fantastisk beslutning. Her er gudesmukt. Fra jeg forlod Lagoons Beach i morges og til jeg nåede vanvittige Bay of Fires 6 timer senere var overmåde overvældende – helt lige som jeg forestiller mig Fantasia.
Min mave har rumlet hele dagen. Ikke blot pga. eventyrets sommerfugle & spænding, så jeg har været tvunget til at køre med nedrullede ruder i dag. Sådan går det, når man ikke kan klare lugten i sig eget bageri…
Det vil nok tage et par dage at fordøje alle indtrykkene her fra min turbo-uge Tasmanien.
3 tankfulde benzin, 135 L og 1730 km er det blevet til i alt. Gad godt vide, hvor mange tunsandwiches det energimæssigt svarer til, og endvidere, hvor mange kilometer jeg kunne cykle på de mange tunsandwiches. Et sygt regnestykke, der gør det svært at retfærdiggøre vores massive (tankeløse?) brug af de fossile brændstoffer. Cykl, cykl, cykl!

Randomly, I ran into Chris, a super friendly spirit that found it stupid that I would spent my last night on Tasmania in my tent near the airport in order to catch my early morning plane back to Melbourne. He kindly offered me to crash in his house. He took me out for dinner (delicious Tassie fish), and took me for a great ride and walk near Sandy Bay and some of Hobart’s suburbs on the hill sides. He even drove me down to Taroona High School where the Tassie-born Crown Princess of Denmark, Mary, went back in the 80s. Now that’s a tour guide that knows how to satisfy his clients!
What a ride!!!
Chris, thanks a lot for your great hospitality. You were an unforgetable, social ending of an unforgetable Tasmanian week.

hey Nicolai
Its harydial again….
I’ve been following ur epic journey….thats so cool man!
I was wondering what camera do u use for your shots? The one with the waterfall is amazing….do u use thinks like filter or other camera gadgets?
As u can figure out i have really got not much idea about phtography but I do identify with great photos and would love to take some like yours….?
Finally do u use a tripod or like a mini one?
And do u just set timer and ran to take solo shorts of urself when there is no one around…..to help u with the camera?
Your log and websites is really cool and keeps me dreaming of one myself
Safe travels and never look back….
Kind Regards

Hi HaryD…
Thanks for the kind words…
I use a Canon EOS 300D with 3 different lenses + a Sony T100 pocket camera. Check the Equipment menu on the main page.
I have a circular pol. filter that I use in bright, sunny weather sometimes. Besides I have a mini tripod. That’s all I use.
Timer and other people’s help I use as well 🙂
The world is such an inspiring place and it’s hard not to get all excited about it – my cameras are normally just as excited as I am. We’re a good match, I reckon…
