Tasmania
 
Trance Nutter
so, what is there to do?

I'm thinking about heading over for a week or so (maybe more) during about mid-march. Got a friend over there who I may or may not be able to meet up with for at least a portion of the trip (Hobart). Other than that, what should I do?

Thinking so far:
Cadbury's
hopefully do some bushwalking somewhere
Maybe Port Arthur for a day or so

any other suggesitons?
Is there anything interesting at Boags or Cascade breweries?

im not a fan of seeing factories so i cant tell you from first hand, but apparently the brewery trips are excellent.

lotsa bushwalking opportunities. possibly best in the country. check out the middle of the state for that i think.

you could search for that elusive person dwelling down here with an IQ over 100 (im in a big cream building in the city ;))

the gorge in launceston is pretty nice.

thats about it, but im not into the travelling & looking at nature kinda things so im sure theres more.

i remember going to the factory when i was quite young and the sickly sweet smell of warm chocolate in the air became overwhelming and i remember feeling quite sick :p

that is just a warning !:D

make sure you trek through PKCs Mums Bush; it's the biggest tourist attraction Tasmania has to offer, it's quite busy this time of year though and you'll have to brave the many japanese tourists taking pictures of its rugged landscape

tasmania is the real life jurassic park - its like stepping back in time 65 million years:wtf:

dunno if therez a david boon memorial go to that

The Tahune Airwalk is good, on the way back you can stop at Huonville for a ride on some jetboats, and the Taste of the Huon is on 12-13 March

Definitely visit Salamanca, if you go clubbing @Syrup on Friday night and stumble out late enough on Saturday the weekly market will be in full swing

The oldest bridge and gaol are at Richmond, along with a some old churches, a maze and model town (also lots of the Coal River Valley vineyards

I could suggest plenty of other stuff, depends what you're into and how much travel you're willing to do

There wasnt too much to see on the Boags Brewery tour, just a factory and you got like 3 small beers in the end.

Definately skip the Cadbury tour nothing interesting there and you get like 1 or 2 chocolates to taste.

If you can make it inland go up Cradle Mtn and/or to Lake St Clair
pretty spectacular places, Wineglass bay is pretty sweet aswell on the east coast.
