    If you select the “follow” button it will send you email updates. *the emails often go to junk mail tho – so check there if you aren’t receiving updates.

  3. Mark, I’m happy to know you and excited to find your blog. When my wife and I visited Australia for the first time twenty years ago we drove up and down Tasmania and just really loved it. This will be great. I’ll look forward to reading all about your island and your adventures there. Thanks mate, cheers!
    Bill
