Random Photos...

Ha!! I'm hanging on tight here! Think this was taken summer 2009 at Fortescue Bay on Tasman Peninsula.  Could be '08 or '10 as we camp there every summer.  Not all that far actually from Shippies, or Shipsterns Bluff, for those not in the know.  The place where all the real surfers go to catch the monster waves.  Maybe i'll drag the old blue coolie board out next year and have a go...lol
This little pic is a shot taken from the beach at Fortescue. We usually have between 30-40 people in our group including kids, and we camp for about 2 weeks.  We have a couple of power boats, a yacht or two, and kayaks for all sorts of on water entertainment.  We ski, biscuit, dive for abalone and crayfish (lobster), fish, sail, snorkel around the ship wreck, do bushwalks, eat gourmet meals made from our fresh catch each night, drink lots, some ppl chase kids and do the parent thing, the rest of us drink more and watch :) It is a trip i look forward to every year!!
The pic to the left is taken on the waterfront in Hobart, looking west towards Mount Wellington.  In summer the waterfront is a busy place.  We have the Sydney to Hobart yacht race between Xmas and New Year, the Taste of Tasmania and the Festival.  The rest of the year its a few seagulls hoping a tourist may throw them a chip!!!
Last week however, we had a whale come visit us.
