We did some much needed grocery shopping at Woolworths in Kingston on Monday morning, also got a few things at Big W (tent pegs, a tarp, sinkers etc), then came home for lunch. After lunch we took a drive around the channel highway which follows the D'Entrecasteaux Channel to Verona Sands, then goes up into Huonvale alongside the Huon River. It is a stunning drive with water views the whole way and although it was a bit cold and windy we really enjoyed it.
The Lady Nelson
At the quaint little village of Woodbridge we watched the training ship The Lady Nelson crash into (and break) the Jetty as the TRAINED CREW!! docked her. Not very far down the road, we stopped and freed a big black horse from a fence he had himself caught in. He'd obviously been there a while judging by the poo around his feet!
We bought apples in Huonvale and picked blackberries on the road. At Huonvale, we turned back to Woodstock and went over some great hilly country through Pelvatara and and Sandfly then home through Margate. It was a fabulous afternoon out.
