I especially enjoyed the references to Glenorchy. I'm guessing you stayed at Glenorchy Holiday Park and probably had some of the baked goods from the Glenorchy Cafe.
Glenorchy is a far cry from the hyper modern Singapore we talk about a lot here and hearing about it was very pleasant.
Once the road is fully sealed, as it may be even now, Glenorchy's character will likely change forever.
