Day 31 - 24/2/2014 – Launceston Day Trip/Cataract Gorge
As the only thing planned for the day was a walk around Cataract
Gorge and the Launceston CBD, we weren't in any great rush to get
moving, especially after the last couple of early starts. We decided
to park at Cataract Gorge, take the chairlift across the gorge and
then walk into the CDB.

| Rant Alert: Living in a post flood city, I get pretty annoyed at all of the "self appointed experts" who seem to disregard all of the science from not only our region but also similar events from a lot of other post flood cities. Bundaberg is no different to other cities where dredging the river won't solve the cities flooding issues. |

After exploring the CDB we headed back to Cataract Gorge for lunch at
the Tea House.
You had to be very protective of your lunch and not leave it
unattended as the local peacocks were stealing peoples lunches right
off their plates when they weren't looking!
It was also the first time that we had ever seen peacock chicks.
They were already picking up the bad habits of their mothers!
After lunch it was time to head back across the gorge via the chair
lift and back to camp for a lazy afternoon.
