Smithton 20 February 2008

After a short drive, we settled by the water at Smithton. This is the only town in the area with any facilities and it is supported by local farming, timber and fishing industries. It is much prettier than we expected, being on a river estuary, with a small harbour of boats. We found the leatherwood honey we tried at the beginning of the trip and loved was harvested here! It won first prize award from Hobart Royal Agriculture Show. We think we can tell the difference in leatherwoods now!
