Tasmania Forum Trip - Pics at last :)

[Kazza]

Well, it's taken a while to sort out - we took over 850 photos on the trip. Travelled over 11,000kms. Travelled across Western Australia, South Australia, Victoria and Tasmania (via the 9 hour ferry trip) and back. 3 1/2 week trip. Both Prebstar and I had a wonderful time. Met Wolfman, Whiteforestjeskar, Ozzieboy, Stumbles, Ozfazer6, Apollo, Humperdinkel and Mrs Humperdinkel, and FZ6 Tas!

I know Humperdinkel is also going to post pictures here. He travelled through Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria and Tasmania (but that's his story to tell ).

1 Madura - The Nullabor
2 Sunrise in South Australia

4 Stumbles, Apollo, Ozfazer6, Ozzieboy and some gal in a Rossi shirt - thanks to all the SA Fizzers who came for a ride that day - Prebstar and I loved meeting you all
