      No I didn't see any Tasmania Devils. In fact I didn't see many dogs either.

      Oh I loved it Robert. It was very steady even though the waters got a bit choppy at times. It would have cost more as we would have had to hire a car if we flew.

    The boat I travelled over and back on was a bigger an over night trip and I got talking to officer from the ship he said it rocks a bit but only worry when we lay the ropes out down the aisles to hang on to as you walk around. Great trip everyone should do it.

    Thank you very much for sharing!
    It's been more than 30 years that I have been there, just for three days in a three weeks "all of Australia" trip.
    Touching for me: Your way of travelling.
    My family endet 2019, we have always travelled a lot, it has been the best ten years of my life.
    Last autumn, a week exploring parts of the UK we've never been to with my daughter (18 than, so with me on the passenger seat often) brought back memories.
    Anyways, before I become sentimental: Keep it up, save trips!
    And good holidays often start with a ferry! ;)

    • @RoadTrainAdventures
      @RoadTrainAdventures  8 месяцев назад

      Thanks Marc. Yes holidays are the best and I was really looking forward to the ship. They have 2 new and bigger ships on order. The first will arrive around September they say. I've never been to the UK so I can't say much about that one.
