A drive through Launceston - Tasmania (Part 1) 2014 

Ha ha. I have never been to South Sussex yet but the English did settle here more than 200 years ago so they must have designed so many things almost exactly the same....... :) Thanks Ali - oh ! , and many happy greetings from Launceston. Ha ha

Been to both and you are right. Lots of similarities.

Ha ha. Yes it is so cold here at the moment. LOL. And so so so so much rain this winter. Now looking forward to spring and hopefully a long hot summer ..... (ツ) Hopefully these two more recent clips below will bring back some nice memories ...... ✔✔✔ ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-BTcoRHR8qTA.html and ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-PO5FqrNQdW4.html

Thank you very much Garry. I will put together another clip soon OK. If only I could upload the "dash cam" live streaming - that would be good fun. Ha ha ........ (｡◕‿◕｡) Many happy greetings to everyone there in Scotland from Tasmania :) Nara

I hope this has triggered some nice and fond memories Kirsten. You probably recognize all the streets pretty well. Many happy greetings. Nara ........ ✿◕ ‿ ◕✿

I think Launceston is very very similar to Christchurch too so we must be kind of like brothers and sisters .............. .... (｡◕‿◕｡)

Many Happy Greetings from Launceston, Tasmania .....

Ah !! ¸¸.•*¨*•*´¨)...... ¸.•´¸.•*´¨) ¸.•*¨) (¸.•´ (¸.•` ¤ Thank you

Thank you Rosie. I am glad that you liked our small city. Many many happy greetings to you and everyone there in Toulon, France .......... (っ◕‿◕)っ

I am not sure which pizza shop in town you mentioned here but would love to try it sometime.

+MrHelidude : It's located near a korean restaurant. Yes you should try it one day, so far that's the best pizza for me. I dont really like pizza before studying in Lonnie, but that pizza is too delicious to be ignored hahahaha

Thanks Caguitas0 This is a long video but at least this way you can see the same as if you were driving with me at my home city ..... _/|''''|''''\__ ' -O----=O-° Hi to everyone there in Mexico ...........(◕‿◕) ,,

Yes, sorry Cédric for the long long clip. It took me ages to upload too. LOL ..... ٩(͡๏̯͡๏)۶ This way you get to see come driving with me - unedited on the streets that I drive through almost on a daily basis (when I am home) , at ending up down at the park where I like flying my kites and my friend and I fly our model planes and helicopters some times over that water inlet. Heheheheeh ......... ✿◕ ‿ ◕✿

***** I can not imagine if i do the same upload with my Inernet connection in Thailand, i die for sure lol Very lovely place anyway ;)

Ha ha. Can't be any worst that what we have here LOL :-)

Ha ha. It was playing on the radio Jason. Thank you ........ (◕‿◕) ,,

Ha ha ! Thanks Thomas...... (ツ)

LOL . Thanks 1BLADESHY ..... (ツ) I am so slow driving nowadays like an old turtle on the road it wouldn't matter. Ha ha...... ٩(͡๏̯͡๏)۶

When were you here Kurniati ? Were you studying ? ...... (ツ)

+MrHelidude : yes, I did my master at AMC from 2012 to 2014, I got married at 2013 so I had my honeymoon in Taz, best place for honeymoon indeed hahaha...

Then you have to come back and visit one day ... ❁◕ ‿ ◕❁ Where is your home now Kurniati ?

I'm from Indonesia, and now living in Indonesia, one day I would definitely come to visit Tasmania again, and maybe we could have a drive around the city? :-)

Ha ha. I reckon he got a little fright but I wasn't going fast and then slowed down even more anyway and he did put his hand up to say Ooops ! Sorry and that was really nice :)

Maybe just a Sunday driver!

Nice its kinda boring in launceston tho XD

¸¸.•*¨*•*´¨)...... ¸.•´¸.•*´¨) ¸.•*¨) (¸.•´ (¸.•` ¤ ...............Thank you

Beautiful city

The sky is everywhere in Australia. Lol, what I mean is that it’s a typically Aussie sky.

Ha ah. Jim ! Me speak ?? Not if I can avoid it. Heheheheheh. I don't like my own voice and I don't think anyone else would either. LOL . Ha ha. It is true our shops are like the good old fassioned days. Really nice. It is good to have big modern malls also though but I think that most people here will be happy to lag behind a little compared to the big cities. Makes Launceston quite unique and I think that is what a lot of visitors also like about our small place...... (◐.̃◐)

Glad that you liked the drive by. Hope you will get to come and experience our city in real life soon . Many happy greetings from Launceston ....... ❁◕ ‿ ◕❁

Thank you Bill. Nice and quiet here. We are not a big city ............ (｡◕‿◕｡)

MrHelidude b careful he could b plotting terror attack for tassie

Thank you ....... ❁◕ ‿ ◕❁

I am sure that you will be most welcome here in Tasmania Jina . Come and enjoy your stay and the awesome and friendly University of Tasmania and their people. Bring some kites and we can fly together in Launceston. Ha ha. Many happy greetings. Nara .......... (｡◕‿◕｡)

Jina Dev there racists that's why they inbreed..all I see is racist faces

Your welcome anywhere 💕

@@notorious2pacforeverthegre164 So you're calling Tasmanians "inbred" and yet _they're_ the racist ones?

Happy greetings Charles. Yes, I did use a small $90 "Dash Cam" . Perhaps I should have edited the video and condensed it a little but at the same time this long versions serves as a nice memory for me so I uploaded the whole drive. LOL. ....... ✿◕ ‿ ◕✿ From Nara

Morpheus Ha ha. So well said. Thank you. Really enjoyed your comment. LOL. Many happy greetings from Tasmania. Oh ! And yes, I love coming the the USA. Have only been to Los Angeles, San Francisco and New York as part of the airline crew numerous times . Awesome places ... ✔✔✔ ❁◕ ‿ ◕❁ from Nara

***** Thank you for the kind response :) And thanks for posting this video. I came across your video as I was looking to learn about Tasmania. And the reason for that was that my very brief search of cities/regions that stay cool throughout the year turned up Tasmania. Would you say that's a fair characterization? In any case, Launceston looks like a beautiful town. Incidentally, I live in San Diego :)

Oh ! I would love to visit and see San Diego one day. So many nice things there especially the perfect weather. LOL .... (ツ) The closest I have been is to Huntington beach. Ha ha. Here in Northern Tasmania it can get quite hot in summer time (December - February), up and above 80°F . The sun is so very bright here due to no pollution whatsoever and that radiant heat is a burner in summer. Even in winter on a good day with the sun out I would be happy to wear a T-shirt when the temperature is around the mid 50's. Within an hour or so we can get sunburned quite badly so being outdoors for a short while could therefore mean putting on some sunscreen ........ (◕‿◕) ,,

***** That is rather hot, especially for my taste. Sounds like San Diego temperatures 9 months of the year lol. I suppose "perfect" is relative. To most people's taste San Diego is just about perfect. But my ideal temperature is about 15 degrees colder than most people's :) Like about 62°F. I absolutely dread San Diego's fall season. The hottest months here are Sep thru November, and it can easily get above 100°F, 3 miles or more inland. Not that it's much better on the shore at that time. Hence my search for cooler climes. Today I learned that "summer" is the #2 myth in Scotland, meaning basically non-existent :D Sounds like my kind of place. I'll have to check it out.

Ha ha. LOL.... ✔✔✔ I am quite comfortable at 65°F - 77°F as long as the sun is out . I hardly ever wear a jumper even if it is only 50°F . Bye for now OK ..... (ツ)

Ha ha. That would be the biggest waste of good tyres. LOL. But the nice hot weather there in Fremantle sure beats the wintry cold here for sure .......... (◕︵◕)

+MrHelidude Trust me..... Far better to have the wintry cold in a nice small city than to have the warmth with the levels of moronic behavior and the infestation of Boganism where once just ordinary people trod. I kid you not. You cannot drve 100m on any road here without seeing the black rings in the road. On highways, main roads, back roads...... anywhere. More money than brains to treat a vehicle that way.

LOL. So true ......... ✔✔✔ ¸¸.•*¨*•*´¨)...... ¸.•´¸.•*´¨) ¸.•*¨) (¸.•´ (¸.•` ¤ Thank you

Hi George. . .Launceston was settled by Europeans in 1806 and is one of Australia's oldest cities . . . Launceston was first called Patersonia but then was later renamed Launceston in honour of a Governor who was born in Launceston, Cornwall, UK ......... (ツ)

MrHelidude hold on am I been given the wrong information about it at school they said 1817

Launceston is a good as city

probably the same as in New Zealand, they eventually fall through the grid. Unless you are a Maori and get special government treatment, you won't have a chance...

thank you .

solunasunrise They have a place for those types in the north, it is called Georgetown.

Matt Thomas I'm dying 😂😂
