It was Sunday and the weather was nice, not that cold or windy. It was perfect weather to start the road trip. Thankfully my baby was not sick anymore and ready to join the road trip. Our plan for that day was to be able reach Queenstown, for staying at night. It is around 280KM from Hobart. 

We left our AirBnB house around 9 AM and we were heading to our first destination: 

Russell Fall

It is part of Mount Field National Park. It is only 1 hour drive from Hobart. After we arrived, my husband left to the visitor center asking for a wheel chair. That's one of the good thing about Russell Fall, we can borrow a wheel chair from the visitor center. No need to worry to bring by ourself. Finished with it, we were so ready to explore the fall. It is around 1,4km from the visitor center to the fall. The path to the fall is really well maintained, no bushwalking, and it is flat surface. The path is surrounded with big-tall-old tree. It was like walking in the middle of jungle but without worry of wild animal. The good weather made it more enjoyable. It was supposed to be only 25 minutes walking, return from and to the visitor center. However, because we were being tourist, we took some photos here and there. When we reached the fall, we met others visitors and we had chat for a while before heading back to the visitor center. 

By the time we reached the visitor center, it was already lunch time. There is a small cafe inside the visitor center. They are selling coffee, fish & chips, and some other meals. We had our lunch there and took some rest before going to next destination. Our next destination is Iron Blow Lookout.
