• Port Melbourne - Spirit of Tasmania

    October 2, 2021 in Australia ⋅ ⛅ 15 °C

    A big day's drive with only a stop at Stawell for some fuel. The traffic around the Spirit loading dock was horrendous and we get lost by missing a turn. We ended up driving down some tiny back streets to get to the port. Lucked out by being able to line up right at the entrance to the boarding point. Next stop Tasmania. Covid restrictions meant we could not leave the cabin. No TV, no fridge. Faye had prepared wraps for our dinner and we had a couple of drinks with us. Watched some shows on the PC before bedtime. Passage out of Port Phillip was fine with a gentle rocking. Crossing was calm. Arrived Devonport around 8:00am Daylight Saving Time. Moved all our clocks forward an hour. Thanks for following along. Our Lap of Oz - Part 2 will be our trip in Tasmania.Read more
