At noon today the lovely and talented Ms. Audrey Wiechman arrived in Tasmania, so I’ll no longer be the awkward bald guy asking for a table for one, and instead will be the awkward bald guy standing next to the pretty girl and asking for a table for two. I’m looking forward to having someone to share the adventures with over the next six weeks.
I had some time before Audrey’s arrival this morning, so I roamed the Inala Nature Reserve in the rain to see what might be out and about, and shared a moment with a few of the birds that were willing to put up with me taking photos. I had planned my day with the thought of getting to the airport with about an hour to spare, but after taking the ferry back from the island, a construction crew that was repaving the lone highway had other thoughts, and I ended up getting to the airport with just a couple of minutes to spare before Audrey finished her journey across the Pacific.
The weather today was somewhat disagreeable, so we drove to our cabin for the night and then did a loop into Tasman National Park to introduce Audrey to the critters in Tasmania, but aside from that the activities were limited. The weather is supposed to be less disagreeable tomorrow, and should become borderline-pleasant starting on Thursday, so we’re expecting many adventures in the days ahead.
