Called into Geeveston and had lunch at a Cafe in the Main Street.
These two statures are but a few scattered around the town.
Inside the cafe below is this collection of teapots.
The Cafe has a look of the old charm.
Across the road is this building with the chemist to the right plus the statue of the Chemist above.
A couple of photos of Southport at a lookout area and in the distance you can see Bruny Island one of Tasmania's Islands which is very popular with tourist.
Below a closeup but didn't used my tripod and should have.
Bill could do with a coat of marine varnish. Tahune Airwalk was our first air walk. It was really good. Such a pity it was damaged, but good that it is being repaired.
ReplyDeleteHe was a character it seems that Bill.
DeleteHave also done the Tahune walk with husband on crutches some years ago, was good.
It looks like a charming town (and a beautiful area). I am glad that the Airwalk is being repaired.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty area down that way. The dollars that are being lost because of the past fires much be thousands or millions of dollars - but thankfully no houses were burnt down or people lost their lives.
DeleteYou caught much of the charm of this place.
ReplyDeleteThanks Bill, if there hadn't been so many cars about could have had more photos.
DeleteBom dia, a cidade que dá a conhecer, foi uma excelente escolha para passear e fotografar.

Thank you. Country towns are often very interesting and have something different to offer.
DeleteBruny Island was my favourite spot in Tasmania.
ReplyDeleteLovely there David, we might go there next year for a visit as there is a new ferry being built apparently, so hope it will be finished.
DeleteMuy buena serie de imagenes, amiga
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteI love those statues.
ReplyDeleteThey are different, it's a pity I could get more photos of the different ones placed around the town. Cars were in the way.
DeleteBeautiful Island.
ReplyDeleteThanks Bob.
DeleteNice pictures Margaret.
ReplyDeleteThe shots of the statues are very impressive.
Greetings, Marco
They are different and mostly well done Marco.
DeleteNice statue
ReplyDeleteIt was one of the better ones.
DeleteMuy interesante la colección de cafetera con sus diferentes estilos.
ReplyDeleteBesos
Was interesting to see all those teapots, brought back memories from when I used to make 'tea' in a teapot :)
DeleteQuite a character was the Tassie "Bill".
ReplyDeleteGreat to see his life commemorated with the plaque and statue.
I hope this big freeze isn't upsetting your or "Shank's"
health? Far too cold for me to even think about a Tassie visit.........Brrrrrrrr!
Great report and photos as usual.
Colin
Thanks Colin.
DeleteCold snap, not too bad for us certainly haven't had to have a coat on (don't own one), Shanks is still in his shorts..lol.
Certainly he was a character, and it's good to read about him as well.
He sounds like a nice fella was Bill
ReplyDeleteHe does Jo-Anne, a real character.
Deleteahhh, my Pentecostal wife broke me of my spicy language. Lucky Bill.
ReplyDelete:)
DeleteLovely to see your photographs, I liked the statues.
ReplyDeletePleased that they are repairing the Airwalk.
All the best Jan
It's good they are repairing the airwalk as it's really lovely there walking on top of the trees, hopefully most of them are still there.
