Cataract Gorge Reserve - Launceston 13th September 2008


























































































































Our visit to the Cataract Gorge Reserve was a good excursion. We all managed the chairlift over the gorge and walked back over the suspension bridge which gave us a chance to stretch our legs. A coffee and/or beer at the cafe to finish made a good day. There were daffodills growing everywhere and an abundance of wildlife including peacocks just wandering around the reserve. It was just a short run to our hotel so it was not an exhausting thing to do.
Images attached: On the bus at Launceston airport with our driver "Bob" and "Bill Elliott" our manager for the tour; the chairlift accross the gorge; walking back around the trail that leads accross the suspension bridge; an old historic tree at the entrance to the reserve.
