Salamanca markets

Each Saturday in Hobart there is a large, outdoor market proudly displaying the local flowers, produce, crafts and artisans of the area.  Here are a few of my favorite things from the Salamanca markets...

Colorful Poppies -  The poppy straw of the plant is used for morphine and opiates.  This is one of the major exports of Tasmania for pharmaceutical companies.

Ginger beer with a little extra kick
Only in Tasmania - Very cute stuffed wombat and devil stuffed animals
How adorable are these little cars with surfboards on top?
