We are staying at the Big 4 Park here in Launceston, which is just out of town up on a hill over looking the place it looks like it is an old park but has, new showers and toilets plus the cabins are all new as well, as we are a bigger van we just fit into the site they gave us and you have little parking.
They seem to be busy and the place fills up most nights, it quiet here with a little noise from the highway if the wind is blowing but really at night locked in your van due to cold you did hear a thing.
There are a number of sheep wandering about and of course one black one, always a black sheep in every family.

We have only been here two days and we are finding some many hidden little treasures about and Ellen heard there was a C.W.A. Shop so guess what our first place to visit this morning, but I got some really nice home made shortbread Creams, nice.
As I walked about the main part of the town it is a old place with lots of buildings with so much age on them, but the funniest thing I saw was when standing on the corner looking up at the Myer building and seeing a large glass window and just inside the glass was a toilet, I guessed it must be the managers special spot.
One thing you see is the kerb and channels on the road is not just concrete as most places, they are made with must be the local stones and do add to the place giving it that old world feel.

I have put a good number of photos of part of the town In which we have visited so far and only one of the parks, it will be a treat once winter comes and the trees change into their winter colours, could be worth a trip back here to get those shots.
Every Photo you take has a story, as I wandered about, looking and taking shots this guy feeding the birds called me over and said I should take a photo of him feeding the birds and make him famous
