Our happy Australia day

A day planned to celebrate and relax with a packed picnic, a drive in the country and visitors invited for afternoon tea.

We headed down the D'Entrecasteaux Channel, just south of where we live, for coffees and a picnic lunch.

We were headed to Fleurty's cafe at Birchs Bay. Set amongst bushland and orchards, it offers stunning views, yummy food, acres of land for playing, running and walking tracks amongst fruit trees and the great Aussie bush. It was perfect.

We'll be back there some time very soon. Next time we will make time to enjoy some of Tassie's own Valhalla ice cream. We will also take the camera.

So, in lieu of photos of Birchs Bay, here are some other favourites from our recent Tassie tour. Enjoy.

Tahune Air Walk, Geeveston, S Tasmania

Bridestowe Lavender Farm, Nabowla, NE Tasmania

Forth Valley, from Braddons Lookout, NW Tasmania

Table Cape, onions and Lighthouse, Wynyard, NW Tasmania

We finished the day with lovely friends, lots of playing in the backyard, chocolate cake and choc chip bikkies. Perfect.

A day well spent.
