It is with great fondness that we often reflect upon a most memorable road trip, spent in Tasmania in late Summer and early Autumn. I could speak of the glorious colours that herald the approaching of Winter. Or I could dazzle you with the sumptuous delights we experienced as we unashamedly ate our way around [...]
