Travel makes my life less ordinary

I was extremely delighted to chance upon this lovely Welsh cottage located in Launceston and I knew that I've got to book this cottage for a night.  Nestled away on a quiet Launceston Street are the heritage cottages, each uniquely and tastefully themed with just a right touch of nostalgic old-world charm. There are various cottages to choose from - The English, Irish, Welsh and Scottish. As suggested by the names, each cottage has its charm and amenities.   It was hard to locate the cottage at first and the GPS kept leading us in the same street for a few rounds until we spotted a little sign board "Alice Cottage" at a corner drive though lane. The drive though entrance was quite narrow but with the excellent driving skill of my husband, we managed to maneuver our vehicle in and thereafter, slowing driving through a small beautiful rose garden. The roses were in full bloom and the air was thick with the sweet scent of the roses. We've finally arrived at our Welsh Cot

After a wonderful retreat at Twamley Farm, we are ready to set off for Launceston, which will take us approximately 2 hr 30 mins drive. Instead of driving non-stop to Launceston, we made a little stop at  a petrol kiosk before heading to Ross Town.  Ross Town is a village in the Midlands of the state of Tasmania. On the Macquarie River, Ross is located 78 km south of Launceston and 117km north of Hobart. The town is listed on the Register of the National Estate and is noted for its historic bridge, original sandstone buildings and convict history. You definitely cannot miss this town when you travel to Launceston. You may refer to Ross website for more information about the attractions. From the many online research, people have been praising this town not only for the quaintness and rich historical background but also famous for its scallop pie. There are two popular cafes selling scallop pies and we decided to pull over at Bakery 31 for lunch.  A post office cum souvenir shop  Scall
