Up Tasmania's East Coast

We did not let the fact that Caitlin was only visiting for a few days deter us from cramming in as many trips to Tasmania's best places as we possibly could! Next leg, up the East Coast!

Tasmania's biggest export crop isn't dairy, salmon, lumber, or wine, but opium. In fact the ideal growing conditions produce almost half of the world's medicinal opiates, an industry that brings multi-millions of dollars to the small island economy.

Of course we also had to do a few winery stops along the way...

Caitlin spoiled us by buying us this very fancy bottle of Freycinet Pinot Noir as a wedding gift! It is currently being cellared in Canada for a future anniversary!
