And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

When I get the time, I'm gonna spend a month in Tasmania just knocking around. Bucket list.
Nope. Just Nope. Just like AUS everything in that country will kill you. Even before you get there. Great White Sharks. Salt water crocs. Box jelly fish. They got every bad snake in the world. They got a thorn bush in the outback that if its wet and you get jabbed, you die. Moderna got nothing on this place. You know they even put beets on a burger? I would arrive by air, be walking in the airport and use the handrail going down the stairs, get a splinter and fall over dead. "Oh, that the banga banga tree, be careful there mate!". Just nope.
Tazzie is a lot different from mainland Australia. Fewer snakes and not poisonous. No crocs. Cooler weather than mainland. Slower pace of life. Absolutely great place. Plus the leatherwood honey is the best honey…period. It’s a place you could live.
At the risk of repeating myself, I'll take my $30 for 5 pound local honey (37.5¢ per ounce) over the $1.54 per ounce high priced spread. As much of it as I eat the toney stuff would have me broke in a year. (Honey's a great replacement for Maple Sugar on French Toast, Pancakes and Waffles!)
It comes in several seasonal flavors including Clover, Blackberry, Yellow Star Thistle and the one I bought last month, Orange. Yum. When you go to the local supermarket that sells it you take what they have in stock at the time.
BTW, in my first comment I meant to say Maple Syrup, not Maple Sugar. Old age creeping.
In November, 1976, while on board the USS Enterprise (CVN-65), we went to Hobart, Tasmania for a week. The local beer, Cascade, put our picture on the beer labels.
Don't forget to get triple jabbed and boosted before you go.
ReplyDeletePretty much a totalitarian state like Australia.

ReplyDeleteThe poisonous snakes are in the government. Never spend your money
Deletewith tyrants! Their citizens have no guns, hence no freedoms.

I'd spend the $20 to taste it.

ReplyDeleteI'll have to give it a try it on my hummingbird egg omelets.
