We arranged a hire car with Hertz, picked it up with no real dramas. The plan was to have no plan, just get in the car and drive, which we did. We found a nice little town called Penguin and had a coffee there. Then, we went further along the coast to Devonport and had a look around the town.
Then, we got into the car and drove back to Burnie.
Doesn't sound too exciting but there was some lovely scenery and the weather was simply glorious
Tasmania was already on our list of 'places to see when we don't feel up to cruising any more' and today simply confirmed that decision.
Today also confirmed that there is apparently a total lack of supply of Travacalm in Australia at the moment. The pharmacies around home were totally out of stock - I asked at one and he said that the supplier is having problems and "everyone is going on cruises". And, for interest I checked out a pharmacy in Sydney and one here in Devonport with the same results - no Travacalm. I had enough to get me through this cruise, but I'm going to have to stock up somehow for next year's cruise!
