After about a 1-1/2 hour drive south/west from the national park we arrived in the small coastal town of Strahan, Tasmania. We spent the night in two old rooms in the Strahan Village hotel. It was ancient, but spacious and warm in the cool coastal village.
The next morning we boarded the Harbour Master II for a six-hour cruise that included lunch. Here is Captain Millikin boarding his ship.
Out in the bay we passed numerous fish farms.
After a two-hour tour of the bay we entered the Gordon River into a cold-climate jungle. Here is a tall waterfall seeming to come out of the trees above.
On one of our two shore walks we saw these fungi that looked quite like some in Michigan.
Our captain said this tree was 600 years old but we had our doubts.
Here is Francis on one of our shore walks. It turned out to be a beautiful cool day. We had a nice ride but saw few birds and the lunch was nothing to brag about.
