Saturday/Sunday 15/16th Nov - stayed in the caravan park at Cradle Mountain where it droped about 2 inches of snow on us overnight. We still managed to drive up to Dove Lake and walked around to a lookout rock which would have given us a magnificent view of the moutain if the blizzard had let up. Even so it was a memorable experience. We were glad to pack up and escape to more temperate weather down on the coast at Strahan where we have booked to go on the Gordon River cruise on Tuesday and the West Coast railway to Queenstown on Wednesday. Don't ask me how much unless I am sitting down. Anyone expecting an inheritance is going to be sadly disapointed. We travelled down here via Zeehan where we visited the West Coast Pioneer Memorial Museum which is in the old School of Mines - the town was deserted on Sunday and I think we were the only visitors. The place looked like a film set.
Today we are taking it easy as Cathy was unwell overnight (she will eat oysters!) and we need a day of R&R - one of those is Rehydration.
