Perry and David from
Melbourne.
Visitor from mainland
Australia all asked the question why the weather was so good for this
time of the year. The perception is that Tasmania is cold, wet
and wild. It sure can be - but once a large high pressure system
comes by the weather can be perfect. From December through to
late May the days are usually fine and clear. By the time we
caught up with Perry and David the clouds had rolled in. |

The car park at Dove
Lake was full by 9AM. It will be far too small next season!
The good news is that the Dove Lake road has been sealed. It is
a credit to the road builders. They have not left a mark.
You would not know they had been there. |

Artist's Pool.
Kara has been in
Tasmania attending the University of Tasmania for a semester as part
of an Environmental Economics degree course. We discussed
Tasmania's environment. She had just completed a paper on the
flooding of Lake Pedder in the 1970's. |

Jenny Richardson from
Boat Harbour on the North West Coast provided us with pictures from
Lake Cygnus
on a trip to the South West. I asked her advice as to when the Richea Scopario
blooms in the Walls of Jerusalem National Park. She replied
"usually when you are not there". Well the same could apply when
visiting Dove Lake. It can regularly be calm - usually when you
are not there. |
