Strahan

Wednesday 2nd December

Strahan is a very remote port.  The main attraction is the wilderness river cruise, which we didn't fancy.  The weather here is usually very changeable, and wet.  Today was brilliant blue sky.  We decided to stay in town and walk the town.

The harbour is very still

With the two big river cruise boats gone, the town was very peaceful

Kairen is the cat
  

*They are floating bins that contain 3 tonnes of food used in salmon farms.  They are pre-programmed to dispense food from the bottom 'spinners' onto the surface of the water. Go back
