Geeveston, Tasmania

Geeveston is a small Tasmanian forest town with a history connected to timber industries. We stopped by for a quick stroll through town and a cup of hot chocolate.

My friend, Maggie, knitted me this scarf for my trip to Tassie. It was very warm. The weather changed quite often that weekend.

This is what we think a Tasmanian Devil looks like. This carving was done with a chainsaw.

All around the town are statues and carvings telling the story of the region's founding people.

The Cascade Brewery is Australia's oldest functioning brewery, built in 1824 then rebuilt after a fire in 1927.

Trip is over. Waiting for the flight to take us back to Brisbane.
