What's a platypus?
The Platypus is a semi-aquatic mammal endemic to eastern Australia, including Tasmania. Together with the four species of echidna, it is one of the five extant species of monotremes, the only mammals that lay eggs instead of giving birth to live young.
And u know what, dont trying provoking a platypus as it is one of the few venomous mammals. The male Platypus has a spur on the hind foot that delivers a venom capable of causing severe pain to humans.
And this is echidna.
Then, we did a short stop at the Swiss Grindelwald
Along the way to Sheffield, we stopped by for cheese. Tasted wasabi cheese, chilli cheese, lavender cheese. But i still prefer the traditional type of cheese with our bread. Haha....
The maturing of cheese...
Off we were to Sheffield. Went to the supermarket there to buy food for dinner cooking.
Sheffield is a town whereby there are lots of murals. And yes, along the way, I saw alot.... And alot of them are very nicely done. Too bad I didnt had the chance to take photos as it was starting to get cold. Yes. Cold. And it was drizzling....
Sleep was at this apartment.
Dinner preparation:
The next morning, just outside our apartment.
Cradle mountain is part of the Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Area. It is at the northern end of the park, and marks the start of the renowned Overland Track – a at least 6-day walk via hiking trails to Lake St Clair, Australia’s deepest natural lake, in the park’s south.
Not a very clear photo as it was cloudy that day.
Though it was autumn, it was cold. We weren't prepared for that cold weather and had to buy gloves there. Luckily, both of us brought along 2 jackets.
On to Strahan on the west coast of Tasmania.
Fireplace... yessss.....
Off for a walk... is this a real police station??
Off to see the sunset.
Most beautiful sunset seen to-date. What was lacking was a bottle of wine.
