The drive to Strahan

We left Crayfish Creek and headed to Corrina where we needed to get the punt over the Pieman River. Suitably it was the Fatman Barge so Tim felt right at home (a nickname from way back). The instructions were great, and apparently they have quite a few people looking for the bridge! We would have loved to have camped at Corrina but there are only a few spots and they were taken, so we went to Reece Dam. It was beautiful and we had the place to ourselves. We were greeted with a perfectly glassy lake in the morning, just amazing! We spent two very relaxing nights here before moving on to Strahan. There was a small hiccup when the front wheel started squealing just outside of Strahan, but our very clever on board mechanic sorted it and we were on the road again.

  2. To Rex and Lola
    Hi, guys! It's finally the start of a new year! But, unfortunately for us, we're not living the dream like you are right now! Today was Molly's birthday, so our family went to dine at an exquisite place. No, not Mcdonald's! TRANGS!!!!!!!!!!!! We also had very fine cheese-cake from the cheese-cake shop in Fairy Meadow. Australia day's coming up this weekend- are you doing anything?I absolutely ADORE how beautiful Tasmania looks, and it seems like you're having plenty of adventures! I won't be surprised if you two write an EXTREMELY long blog about your days! Now, onto my favourite part of the message:Q and A! (Question and Answer, in other words. Sounds a lot less boring, right? Ooooh, first question!) Q: Has anyone done something CRAZY? Q: What was that thing where Rex was lying down and up really high?
    Looking good, Rexy Sexy, and you're getting tall,Lola
