WEDNESDAY 21 - THURSDAY 22.3.2012: Having spent last night at Deloraine Freedom Camp we set out for our last day of sightseeing in Tasmania. Purchased supplies from Ashgrove Cheese at Elizabeth Town and continued on our way to a privately owned garden at Moltema. Villarett Gardens date from the first years of the century when Beech, Holly and Oak trees were planted, around which the gardens have been developed since 1977. Ten acres of formal gardens comprising of exotic shrubs and trees, roses, herbs, climbers and bulbs, with numerous water features throughout. Beautiful, just one issue, the gardens were on very, very very steep slopes - no problem walking down, but we had to traverse the side of the slope to return up the hill. Felt a little like mountain goats, but probably looked more like lumbering elephants.
RAINED THROUGHOUT
THE WALK!

Last stop of the day was a return to Anvers Chocolates - just had to! With a touch of Déjà vu we pulled into Abel Tasman Caravan Park in preparation for our Tasman crossing.
