Sheffield, Tasmania
After two days of perfect weather the Cradle Mountain returned to its habits and the clouds came low veiling everything around in a wet mist. So it was the time to leave Cradle Mountain and stopped on the way in Sheffield, a town of murals where I met Pedro, the traveling lama.

The drive to Mount Field makes for another long day of driving. Mount Field is a national park of waterfalls and tarns, small alpine lakes hung by mother nature close to the skies.

The 4.5 hour drive – it's long to get to Cradle Mountain but it's also long to get out of it no matter where you may go – was not the most interesting in spite of a collection of lakes on view. But driving down from the mountains helped improved the weather and the sun broke through the clouds.

Mount Field is a beautiful park and the waterfall trail is easy and very popular. It's a 2.5 hour loop that passes three waterfalls, Russel, Horseshoe and Lady Barron, crossing on the way in a depth of a forest of very tall trees, an absolutely impressive sight.
