It was on a bus. The driver was crazy, throwing the bus everywhere. My bike was in a trailer being towed by the bus. I expected carnage when he opened it up. There was some damage but not enough to file a complaint.
The Camp Site - Treasure Island Cabin & Caravan Park
Official Web Site
This is a large city and the caravan park is right by a very busy road. I eventually got some sleep but don't expect the peace and tranquillity of the rest of Tasmania! The park is expensive.
After enjoying the whole trip without any security mishaps, I got my vital phone battery charger stolen from the camp kitchen overnight. I didn't think anyone would steal a battery charger but I was wrong. Although I could get a replacement in Launceston, I arrived on a Saturday evening and it was closed Sunday. So I had to go back to the mainland with no phone battery.
The Camp Kitchen and Toilet are a bit close together.
My tent and the crash barrier for the Midland Highway behind it. It should be mentioned that I enjoyed 20 dry days in a row since the 6 days of rain ending at Queenstown. So the tent was no longer waterproof but I got away with it for 3 weeks.
The Town - Launceston
I think this was my fourth time here so I had established where to eat, and how to get around by now. It was feeling like a second home! It's quite a way from the camp site to the city centre so I used the bike. It was by now in a terrible way. I was afraid of permanently damaging the back wheel beyond repair. Spokes were falling off everywhere!
The Characters
To the thief who nicked my phone battery charger, don't cross my path as long as you live!
