One thing we are both looking forward to when we move is the easy access we will then have to the Huon River. Its close here but it involves quite a few kilometres drive to reach a place to be able to drop the kayaks in. In Franklin it will be only a very short drive down to the bottom of our road to a perfect parking spot and an easy drop into the Mighty Huon!
Geoff and l bought our kayaks a couple of years ago. We didn't use them at all last Summer as Geoff wasn't feeling the best, but this Summer should be a different story!
The trusty Kayak Carrier!
This is Egg Island which sits in the middle of the Huon River. We live up the red arrow road (no... there isn't a Plover sitting up there!!.!....she's still there by the way!). In the very middle of the Island is a Lagoon. You can see all its waterways in the photo. Its a bird Sanctuary and a million miles away from the rest of the world once you are in there. 
Inside the Lagoon. the water is only about a foot deep in some places.Its a very peaceful place and full of hundreds and hundreds of Black Swans!
Paddling back out towards the River. Its such a lovely way to idle away a couple of hours.
Lill in her life jacket. Always there but always a rather long suffering passenger!
This was taken Christmas Day a few years ago with Bear and Treeka trying to join me!
Geoff , ever the intrepid explorer!
Best way to carry one!!!
