Branxholm

Kate’s last night in Tasmania.  She had to be at the airport at 10 am so we decided to stay as close as possible to Launceston. On the way to Branxholm we stopped at a place called ‘Pub in the Paddock’. Guess what – it really is a Pub in a paddock.  They have a pig that is an alcoholic and for a dollar you can get a watered down bottle of Boags beer and feed it to her.  What a waste of good beer!! The pub however makes really good desserts and we all had one with the excuse that we had walked so much the day before, so could afford the calories. J

Pulled up in Branxholm close to the local pub.  Was very cold and wet – so decided not to cook for the night.  We had our showers and went over to the pub which gave us their private dining room with a roaring log fire.  We of course had to have a couple of drinks, real home cooked meals and then dessert because none of us wanted to head back to the freezing camper van. The one great thing about Branxholm other than the Pub, were the showers.  They were absolutely divine and warmed my soul!
