🇦🇺 Tasmania Round 2 | Launceston Day Trip 🦆 | Day 26
After days of rain, we chased sunshine ☀️ northwest—success! Here’s how we spent the day: 📍 Anvers Chocolate Factory 🍫 Free truffle tastings! Bought a 4-piece gift box ($10)—perfect souvenir. (Pro tip: Summer visits = risky for chocolate hauling.) 📍 The Big Platypus 🦆 Australia’s "Big Things" series strikes again—slightly terrifying. 🪵 Bonus: Free timber museum (competitive lumberjack history!). 📍 Tasmanian Arboretum 🌳 Platypus paradise! $10 entry (honesty box in winter). Spotted 3 platypuses 🦆—look for bubbles + surfacing noses in the lake. 📍 Jailhouse Grill 🍽️ Prison-themed steakhouse (revisited!): 650g "Last Meal" steak + coal-fired flavor. Oysters + seafood platter = solid picks. 🏡 Cozy Night In 🔥 Host prepped rainproof bonfire—next-level hospitality! Next Up: ❄️ Northeast’s Little Blue Lake + Ben Lomond snow views 🏔️ (weather permitting). #TasmaniaRoadTrip #PlatypusSpotting #ChocolateLover #LauncestonEats
