Tasmania - 2005

Lets go kayaking!Yet it is a bit sad that it ended so fast.Well, its a good time to think of the next thing. :-)..and the sea.Were really happy that we did it and how we did itMisha30 days we lived together...Alon(Although that days we didnt look our best)Blankets and mattressesThey gave us a shelterAnd when our tent (with all the stuff inside) departed from us to the Pacific Ocean...Helped us with forecasts when we had no other source.They invited us to their homes...The Tasmanians turned out to be amazingly friendly and wellcoming....for both of us.But it was definitely not easyWe did it pretty fast...We could finally celibrate it in the laundry!If we reached civilization...Then we always had a "shower"And run to warm up a little bit :-)...many times up to the sunset....having lunch on the waterWhen we paddled, we did it all day longTasmaniaTasmaniaWhen we were stuck we could finally explore the amazing coasts of Tasmania(well, the channels were sometimes not very attractive)...and check the forecast...and even watch TV...and readWe used this time to recover our bodies and eatThere were a few days that we got stuck on the beach because of storms.And there was a single day with we were caught in the sea by a 45 knots squall (surely we couldnt shoot it ON the sea).Some days started really calm...But they ended with force 6 head winds.Or stormy like this one. Believe us it is very high (5 meters). Here Alon shoots Misha but he is on the other side of the wave.Calm like a mirrow...And sometimes really deep.Sometimes VERY shallowSo how was the sea?...And after 30 days we arrived to Ulverstone again. Basically thats it. :-)Then we left UlverstoneFirst we brought the kayaks
