Strahan

A lazy day today. The weather was, once again, fine, sunny and blue skies, so we took ourselves off to the beach.
We drove to Macquarie Heads at the mouth of the harbour along a gravel road. Foxgloves aplenty by the roadsides. It was a bumpy gravel road once again, and at the end, a campsite where you could truly get away from it all.
We plonked ourselves down on Ocean Beach and got out our books to read. This was clearly a popular spot for fishing, and we watched anglers up and down the beach cast their lines in hope, the most successful being a lady angler who pulled out numerous Tasmanian salmon in quite a short space of time. Sadly we had left our rods back in the trailer - otherwise we would have joined them all. Most were successful, and we were quite envious of them all cooking their fish this evening.
Returning to Strahan we had a wander through the village and then back to site to make plans for our trip northward in the coming week.Read more
