Strahan Village



Risby Cove Restaurant. We dined here one evening and would recommend it. Beautiful ocean trout.



Strahan is a bit of a sleepy town, on the west coast of Tasmania.

Travelling to Tasmania

The Big Boat to Tasmania. It took nine hours sailing to the little island at the base of Australia. Luckily for me, it was very calm. Much to Stick's annoyance. He was most keen to see me chunder.


OK. One guess as to the name of this township. We came through here on our first day.
And drove to Leven Canyon





Beautiful picnic spot where we did not have lunch.
