Wayatinah Lagoon

by in Tasmania, Trip

We woke up with more rain, lucky drizzle this time. We pack up and head further south east.

As soon as we are on the road the clouds open.

And soon the sun comes out to steam dry the roads.

The road takes us through a national park and gives us nice views of streams and bush.

Then we come to Wayatinah dam, which is the end of a complex structure of dams and power generation.

We decide that it’s time to do our laundry and have a proper hot shower and pull into the caravan park. Someone must have decided that it was not nice to have big trees in the dam.

And clearly couldn’t be bothered to remove the tree stumps after cutting them all down.

The recent rain made the surroundings all soggy so access to the water’s edge led to brown socks.

It was nice and quiet though and we were able to do all the laundry, take nice showers and had a good time. We didn’t try out the nice big pool after we saw that most kids and adults were wearing full wetsuits. We assume the temperature was not very appealing.

A nice day.
