Holiday at Home

 We got off the boat from Melbourne - washed some clothes - picked up our new caravan (it's fancy) and took off for the long weekend to holiday 45mins from home in Stanley. Talk about holidaying at home!

 We had some good weather and we had some windy weather but unlike last year at least it wasn't a wash out.

 

Stanley is famous for the nut but has lots of quaint shops and beautiful beaches (when it's not windy). Its also a bit historic....I'm not a  tourist info booth..but apparently the first phone cable to Tasmania landed here...there's a lot of old stuff about.

 

There was fishing and a beautiful feed of flat head, not caught by me because i bragged of my skills before heading out and didn't even get a bite {karma anyone?}.

Sometimes gloves and beanies are a necessity for eating tea but doesn't that fresh air make you feel alive...damn! Back to work next week...good lord its going to be a long week.
