🇦🇺 Tasmania 4D4N Chill Road Trip Guide 🚗💨
📍 Day 1: Melbourne → Launceston 🏞️ Cataract Gorge Cable car ride 🚡 to meet a fearless chubby wallaby (the only one that lets you pet it!). Cradle Mountain: Took the shuttle to the summit 🏔️—weather went from rain to wind in minutes! Underdressed, so only glimpsed Dove Lake before retreating. 😅 📍 Day 2: Launceston → Hobart 🥐 Ross Bakery: Must-eat: Scallop pie + vanilla cake + coffee ☕️ (perfect combo!). A Kiki’s Delivery Service fan’s pilgrimage spot! 🌉 Richmond Village: Honey cake 🍯 + photos at Australia’s oldest stone bridge. ⛰️ Mount Wellington: Freezing winds! But the panoramic Hobart view is unbeatable. 🍻 Cascade Brewery: Beer = 👍 | Food = 👎 (Thursday "2-for-1" deal = tiny portions + 1hr wait). Lesson learned: cheap ≠ good. 📍 Day 3: Hobart → Bruny Island 🦪 Get Shucked: 4 dozen oysters (2 natural, 2 dressed) + salmon + oyster shooter—world-class freshness! 🍯 Island Honey: Honey ice cream 🍦 (AUD 5) = creamy, dreamy, best ever! 🌊 The Neck: Where the Pacific meets Indian Ocean—surreal colors! 📍 Day 4: Hobart → Launceston 🛍️ Salamanca Market (Weekends only): Handmade crafts, signed books by local authors—quirky & charming! 🦪 Melshell Oyster Shack: Closed on weekends (missed those gold-edged oysters!). 🦞 Lobster Shack: Lobster roll = ✅ | Whole lobster = meh. 💡 Final Tips: Next time: Head to Stanley for *13-flavored oysters*—the ultimate foodie quest! #1 Rule: Pack for all seasons—Tassie weather is wildly unpredictable. #TasmaniaTravel #FoodieAdventure #BrunyIsland #CradleMountain #OysterLovers
