Out of Launceton Into the Wild Tasmania

 Our flight from Melbourne to Launceton, Tasmania took about 1 hour on JetStar Airline.  We rented a new Kia and headed west on a secondary highway.

We entered Cradle Mountain National Park where we stayed in this new "cabin".  It was a huge National Park and many sites were taken by tent campers.

Our cabin was modern, as you can see, and it was warm and comfortable even though the night temperature was rather cold and it was spitting snow in the morning.  Luckily, the snow did not stick and we moved on as planned Wednesday morning.

We drove a few miles into Cradle Mountain National Park and boarded a bus.  The bus drove us about 15 miles into the park (kind of like Denali in Alaska) and dropped us off at a visitor center.  Behind the center was Dove Lake.  After our tour we got back into our warm Kia and headed deeper into west Tasmania.
