Dass deine Mutter ein Nilpferd ist, macht dich noch lange nicht zum Ägypter!

Cradle Mountain

The weather still held the next day, so we decided to head for Cradle Mountain Peak, taking the Overland Track route from Ronny Creek, via Marion’s Lookout, and then circled back via Face Track, Lake Wilks Track, and Dove Lake track. Not a cloud in the sky, brilliant weather, and no wind either. This is…

Mole Creek

On our way south we passed thru Sheffield and discovered another little gem, a Fruit and Veges shop tucked away in a side alley next to the gas station, kinda opposite the tourist information and the IGA. This shop has great produce and does real fruit ice cream, what more could you wish for? ☺…

Bundesliga

It’s telling how I keep losing interest in football over the years. I guess I’m also not the target audience any more, which seems to be middle class families willing to spend thousands of euros each year. To keep the coffers of the greedy bastards filled. I’m also unwilling to give up my personal freedom…

Port Sorell

We decided to take a little detour on purpose and take the southern route because that provided an excuse to stop by the beloved Eureka Farm again. Soooo delicious, again and again. I’m still heartbroken that I probably won’t be going there ever again. 😔 We also made another pitstop at St Mary’s and then…

Bay of Fires

Still enthused by the culinary delights consumed at Eureka, we drove down to Binalong Bay. What a nice place. This is certainly one of the absolute highlights of our trip. Fantastic apartment (thru Air Bob  again, I mean AirBnB but since autocorrection insists on either Air Bob wtf? Or Airbus we’ll use Air Bob henceforth),…

Blood & Honor

I just found out that Tasmanians are just as dishonorable as Canadians. There are certain activities and consequently certain parts of the body that should not be bitten. But apparently these fellas don’t adhere to the unwritten codex. Fuck you, I’ve had enough. I will kill every single mosquito. We Germans suck at almost everything,…

Hot and naked

That title should get me pics some traffic. 😁 In order: very rare, endemic Tasmanian gumboot tree, sign, motivational sign, breakfast for Champions 😍 💕 💞 🍓 🍒🍑🌞

Paradise Lost

Perhaps it’s time to make it clear that I really despise AirBnB. It’s a tax dodging scheme that gives ‘landlords’ an unfair advantage by allowing them to ignore regulations that ‘official’ businesses have to adhere to. Alas, it is impossible to find accommodation outside this scheme in some areas, so I have to use it…
